get rid of the res while they are under there and put in a long glass pack
why spend money if its not needed? glass pack and a res are the same thing, no difference, if the res is ok leave it be.
Looked at it, got in the truck and left for work. Needs an alignment, so she sits.

Yeah, gotta look under and see how things look. If nothing else is bad I plan on leaving it for now.
Plan on doing the u bend delete with cat replacement.
the res would leak, aka exhaust leak if it was rotted out. so if the cars still nice and quiet, its fine for now.
Took it through the wash and go, shined the tires, cleaned the rims and went to lunch. MERICA!!!
Danielle if you happen to get a catless dp I can tune your code out from not having a cat
oil change time for the hefty one :)
A resonator is A LOT quieter then a glasspack and usually last longer.Quote:

car sounds just the same, quiet.
i got in it, thumped some beats, drove like a madman to the post office and back lol
Drove it home with an empty backseat.. grr
Intended to clean my carpets this weekend, so meant to grab the shop vac from work today, forgot though!
Drove it to work, filled with $58 of 93, floored it one or two times, home-done! Will be dropping to 3.6 pulley and getting tuned tomorrow at my boys lil 3800 car meet in Orlando. :)
Took her to a car show and impressed some people with a burnout.
^^^^u think ur cool
Finally after... forever I got the A/C Compressor changed, and did the serpentine belt as well. Finally my car runs quite to were you can't even tell it is on. It nice to say my car has no problems now.
And it got a wash.
This intake swap and some minor tuning has me grinning ear to ear.between the 4' intake and full 3' exhaust I can't tell which sound I like more. So in love with this car. Now to move on and measure my rear bumper for the G8 GXP rear diffuser project..
Got a $40 car wash today. No time to do it myself but it needed it bad.
I LOVE the way a black car looks when it's clean.
Put a new Dorman sway bar and new Moog links on the Impala. I could not for the life of me get that bar in the same way I got the stock one out... So I lowered the subframe a few inches on both sides and it slipped in with some force. Seeing how much heavier and stiffer the dorman one is over stock makes me wish I would have replaced my sway bar when I did my links. I'll take it for a test drive and see how much better it is around turns.
Also put a cabin air filter in my GP, the filter was ordered as an 03 impala since when under my 02 GP, no filters come up since they didn't come with them. It's still all the same under there though.
What year Impala do you have ? Wife wants a 2005 for a daily driver.Quote:
