Removing Stock muffler

Okay, so, i decided to get a new muffler before i get my catback, how would u suggest going about removing the old muffler and installing the new one. I have no welding tools. The stock muffler is welded on and not sure how to remove it, do i simply use a hack saw?

I would wait until you have all of your parts. If it is a real good kit made for your car, it should pretty much be bolt on. Before you start cutting though, make sure you have all the pieces you are installing.

Re: Removing Stock muffler

You can go to your local autozone and get a pipe cutter, it is kinda like a rental system, you put down a deposit and borrow it. Most modern aftermarket catbacks are simply boltons, so no welding is necessary.

Your 1996 Mitsubishi 3000GT VR-4 is the 92nd out of the 315 that were made that year. Only 21 of which are exactly identical.
