Just Checking

I have a 2002 2.4L and was wandering if the exhaust pipe diameter was 2.25 inches. The guy at the exhaust shop said it was, and I measured it to be the same. Is this right because if it is I dont see a point of getting new pipe that is the same size.

Yeah it is, and trust me, if your goin to replace your exhaust, get a new pipe. It doesnt cost that much, and its worth it in the long run. Almost anything is better quality than stock, and itll last longer.

very well said Roboto. if your going to get the exhaust change out the old pipes. like MrRoboto said getting new pipe will last alot longer than your stock pipe.

Re: Just Checking

Just trust us man, I have an 03 and im gettin an entire new exhaust. The stock is in great condition, but I know the main rule of life. There is the easy way, and then theres the other way that becomes easy once you get your next paycheck. Personally, I like the second way. I mean, if you really want to keep the exhaust stock, go ahead. It wont destroy your car or anything, it will just make you spend more money later on.
