L20b Cody's Goon

[Patcon]

I'm 6'4" and he makes me feel like a midget. He's good help now. Strong and smart. He's a good mechanic and a good welder. Nice to have him close by

Got a muffler for Cody's car. This should fit

[Yarb]

Outside on Mama’s coffee table!! Looks like a nice muffler. What’s your experience with Borla?

[Patcon]

I don't have a lot of experience with Borla. I had a lot of specific requirements for the muffler. So I only had like 3 options and the Borla was the only polished one. They have a pretty good reputation. So we'll see how it sounds

So more exhaust work last weekend

I can't load all the images I want to. I get an unknown server error -200 @Mike

Here are the one's that did load

Old next to new

We couldn't get the exhaust back under the car once it was tacked up. So we cut it here and will add another Vband. It pretty much all tacked up up. Once we verify that, we will ship off the header for jet coating.

The cross section on the new exhaust is 315% bigger then the stock exhaust (1.25" vs 2.5"). It'll probably be rowdy but Cody will like that

If the inside is going from 1.25 going to 2.5 inch.. the  cross section will be even 400% according to my calculations.. (CS= (Pi) 3,14159265 x diameter squared.)

I calculated 1.5" exhaust versus 2.5. I'm not sure if the stock exhaust is 1.25 or 1.5"

Either way that engine can finally Breathe!!
