Loved the vid! I’ve been wanting to do this on my car for so long. Was the flex pipe wider than your regular exhaust pipe or was it the same? If it was wider, by how much was it? Also were the clamps the same size as the flex tube? I’m really new to this but love cars. Sorry I probably sound like such a newbie. You definitely deserve a sub though!
First off thanks brother and welcome 🙏🏼 To get the best fitment possible just measure the outside diameter of the pipe... A Digital Caliper would be the easier choice to measure accurately so say if it reads 60mm, then you can get a 2 3/8 pipe n clamps (to ur question, same size yes) and possibly open up the ID of it slightly so it fits over ur exhaust nice n snug... or you can try a slightly higher size if you don't feel like doing all that and slide it over and clamp it down tight... Hope that helps you on ur journey brother!
just discovered you channel man, love the calm vibes really helpful too. I really hate the more obnoxious car tubers so thanks bro!
will you ever do a backseat delete? I cant find a clear DIY for it.
Ahh before I decided to hit record (you know start a channel to post some vids n share the Journey lol) I did do one on my EG civic before but wish I started youtube alil earlier as I did do some epic works with previous builds before😩 live n learn😩
& thanks for the kind words my guy! appreciate you and the support🙏🏼
Good video Eddie! Makes me wanna do a muffler delete on my G35 even though it's probably not as restrictive as a coupe or 350z muffler. The 2 flanges that go from the muffler pipe to the mid pipe are really rusty on my car. Everytime I tighten or loosen the nuts that bolt the 2 flanges together, more rust pieces fall off lol. Plus, prices for just a bolt-on performance muffler are like $500-$600!
I would say do it, but hey to each their own lol... yea as u saw mine, the rust just broke that entire section off 🤣... for a g35 though personally I would do a dual muffler delete rather then the single outlet. IMO it looks better (dual) on a G... but if you want a sweet sounding exhaust go for it! Muffler Delete for the win!🏁
Update: I’m doing this on my Forte5 and so far it’s going great. Tried doing it with a manual exhaust cutter but I’m needing a reciprocating saw. Other than that everything fits well. Flex pipe is perfect! My engine already sounds good so I’m not worried about the sound! $45 and sounds loud :) Thanks brother
Brother you are making things happen! Your most welcome 🙏🏼 Maybe the blades we dulled? But either way next best thing is a quick cut with a reciprocating saw, good stuff... 😅 I have one myself but wanted to keep it DIY friendly as I know most don't have one or have a garage with electricity available so I just did the next best thing with the manual cutter lol.. Down for some sound clips via IG if u did any, lmk and once again good stuff brother glad it all worked out!
@@SimplyEddieG yeah it’s been done for about a week. I love the sound, but just a lot of cabin drone. Kept the muffler so if I wanted to have someone put it back on for me, it wouldn’t cost much. I can fs send u sound clips on ig
Soliddd 🤙🏼🤙🏼 N truly glad you enjoying the sounds & your work brother!
Hey liked and subscribed. Going to do this on my 98 ford escort. Going to hit you up for some advice hope thats ok. I am truly impressed. No welding. No problem. Good job Rude Boi!
Thanks for the support & appreciating the work Carbibbean! Definitely feel free to DM when the time comes🏁
Same going to try this on my 2000 Ford Escort ZX2.
I used a Y" pipe from
res then sent two 2.5in to each side, used stock tips, shop only charged $150
to weld it all up w/ hanger on each side. Sounds perfect, even pretty quiet at low R"s,
no drone or raspy crap, sounds better then most costly systems, I actually pulled off an Z1
spec single, this sounds better and again quiet til you stomp it
Thats not bad shesshhh i went to a few shops for my single exit and the lowest I got was 180 like if i dnt know the cost or the work required lol... felt like i drove a bmw into a shop and they wanted to get me for as much as possible 😂💀
The exhaust connection is so simple its not even funny but i bet if it was my old 96 ek civic hatch and it had the same exhaust layout as the Z it would of been 60 max cause its a honda... funny world
@@SimplyEddieG I shopped two other places who want $300.Guess a little luck didnt hurt, main thing is, it sounds really good and getting that restrictive muffler off for sure feels better through the R"s. Expensive exhaust is a waste of $ unless your building the motor for mega power. I only have a few add ons..and a 100 shot of juice😆. Z1 single was always loud just not practical.
My man, Good shit!! I'm looking to do a resonator delete and remove my mufflers on my Is250! This pipe looks like it will work great! Keep up the work brotha!!
❤ Thanks brother! 💯 You gonna be riding loud over there lol but have fun and send me some sound clips on IG if you get around to this lil project🤘
Cheers for the videos on your channel I find them very interesting. Good job.👍
haha thanks brother! 🙌🏼🙏🏼appreciate that as I'm humbled many enjoy my journey and fun diy projects ty 💯
Hey man, awesome vid! How’s the flex pipe now? Did it last?
Hey my guy so its actually holding up well. Like I said in other replies I wish I had coated it or wrapped lol cause it is rusty but she still running🤘🏼
How that flex pipe holding up?
Hey brother thanks for asking but lol it's is still there hanging out, doing what it was made to do🤙
Great videoo broo!!! Imma do mine tomorrow
SICKKK! Drop a clip in the dms when done brother love to hear it🤙🤙
Keep doing wat u doing brother
🙏🏼 Will do brother n thank you for those words, appreciate you🤘🏼
I am doing the exact same thing now.. inspired by your video.. I hope it sounds good.. I have long tube headers with no cats.. hope all goes well lol
OMGG 🤣😂🤣💀 Waking up the neighbors is part of the daily grind uh? lmao sheeshhh thats gonna be loud brother enjoy! and lmk how it comes out with that set up 🏁🏁🏁
Thank you, i wanna do it now I need to get the clamps and stuff.
Have fun brother🤟 In my case it was worth it... Just disconnect your muffler and see if you like how it sounds before cutting away lol but enjoy and try to go stainless steel clamps/pipe to minimize rust if u up around snow winter seasons like myself in NY or paint it 🙌
Earned a sub👌 gonna do something similar to my car im gonna use this vid as reference
Good stuff brother n good looks appreciate the support!🤘🏼 lmk if anything and all tools n parts are in the description if needed for reference🏁
Thats a great idea! Lovin it bro and that tip looks the business
Im gona do same now haha 😄
Hows it holding up after all this time? Any leaks or problems?
HAHA thanks brother! All is good but I would Look for a stainless steel model as thru the winter it got rusted ALOT lol n quick too however it's still running good but I would either 1. paint it (high temp clear or of ur choosing) or 2. seek a stainless steel model, been looking myself and found some on ebay but from the UK... but no leaks or problems brother🙏🏼
Hey 👋 bro like the video very informative, question 🙋♂️ we’re can I buy one of those flex Exhaust pipes?
Hey brother, definitely check out your local autozone. Even amazon I would guess would have them in stock. Just wish they had a stainless steel model 😫 lmk if you find it in stainless steel during your searches 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
& thank you 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Good vid thinking about doing this to my suburu legacy. Do u think it will work
Hey Eric, not sure of your layout to be honest brother but hey just measure out how much pipe you need and see if it matches whats available if i remember correctly the flex pipe comes in at 18 or 19 inches... But hey if anything else lmk and GL on your mod!🤘
I did mine.. sounds great
My Guy!!! shoot if u have a chance hit me with a sound clip on the ig some day 🤙🏼🤙🏼
Also have you needed to use any exhaust sealant to make sure no leaks happen?
Not really I'm doing good without it but each set up maybe different... this was really me just sharing my journey lol didn't think it would reach so many people😅 ... So if you like, you can definitely use some high tempt RTV as u slide the flexpipe over your exhaust and then clamp it down... just get an ideal size flexpipe and clamps and you should be good to go but if you like you can definitely rtv it as well 🤙🏼
I did something similar with ebay pipe extensions. My ute sounds dope now
Soliddddddd 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙏🏼... Was gonna go that route but wanted something for now as FI will take the space over later🤙🏼
I like it very nice 👍
Thank you! Appreciate that 🙌🙏
Where in ny you from. I’m in central. Video was helpful.
😂🙌🏼 Originally the Bronx brother, lived their my whole life till about 24 and now reside in Westchester... Glad you found it helpful though and if you ever see me at a meet drop by🤘🏼
Enjoyed the video totally yu definitely from ny tho Not for nothing 😭💯🤘🏾
LMAOOO😂💀 Thanks brother & appreciate the support! and yes, lately been getting that alot in the comments lol
HELP DO YOU LOSE POWER WHEN DOING A RESONATOR DELETE AND MUFFLER DELETE TO A STRAIGHT PIPE ? I CANT SEE IT HARMING EXHAUST SCAVENGING , OR BACK PRESSURE THAT FAR DOWN THE EXHAUST !!!
Hey brother so it really all depends on the set up but if u don't have adequate back pressure it can inadvertently cause you to lose power with the deletion of both... I'd say if your new to tuning or if its your first build, explore other options, FBO or FI before considering going straight pipe... Best of luck boss and feel free to DM on IG if anything🤘🏼
Hey, how would I have to ask for a muffler delete if I want to get it done by someone else? also on a 350z
Hey brother, just take a screen shot of my vid and show a local exhaust shop that you just want to remove the muffler and create a short pipe to exit (that way they don’t try to over sell you by trying to make it seem more complicated lol)... However if u in New york just go to a muffler shop and tell em i want a muffler delete and they know what to do lol
My flex connector has leak how can I fix it temporary flex connector near converter any advice infinitiy fx35 my check engine light blinking also car sounds like crap
Hey Jarrod, Not 100% sure what we can do for that as I can't see it up close but real quick some suggestions is to replace or if that it not a option try to wrap it. I believe they sell an exhaust tape that I saw when combing thru the aisle to get the clamps for this job at autozone. Never used an exhaust tape before but I hope that helps! lmk
Great diy
Ahhh thanks brother 🤟 I Appreciate that n glad you enjoyed the diy!
Is it ok to only have the piping and no tip? And also would I have to install a hanger?
Definitely will need a hanger brother... Without a tip? Idk about that look, but hey to each their own, GL my brother but try getting a tip that fits you, it will look alot better trust me🙏🏼
Need ur help brother, is there a way I can delete without cutting the pipe? I have a lease
Well😅 this video really isn't for a lease & not sure if you have a Z so dnt know the layout butttt what you can do brother is see where your muffler connects to #1 the type of connection... #2 search for the flange type & size such as this one for example (www.ebay.com/itm/FX8017EX-2-1-2-ID-Universal-QuickFix-Exhaust-Oval-Flange-Repair-Pipe-Kit-Gasket/161315484279?epid=730530203&hash=item258f26f277:g:ouUAAOSwOb5fEi5x) #3 remove muffler and place a similar flange as the one shown via link in place and start routing your connection as in the video n there you go NO cutting 🙌🏼...
Or you can just take it to the exhaust shop and they'll disconnect your muffler for you and create a straight pipe to the back using a flange like this (www.ebay.com/itm/US-3-inch-ID-2-Bolt-304-Stainless-Steel-Exhaust-Downpipe-Flange-Exhaust-Gasket/223771878160?hash=item3419d7e310:g:k4AAAOSw9~5b0Lmi) , and there goes your muffler delete... so when you ready to give back your lease if you decide to, you can bolt your muffler back up🤘🏼
Hey how much cylinders? I have a 07 civic (not si) and i want to do this, will it work?
Hey brother you have 4 cylinders.. Now will it work? ehhh its more of preference based on the individual... Can anyone do a muffler delete on their car? Absolutely, but does everyone love the sound it produces is the question... I guess if your interested, See if u have any friends with muffler deletes on their civic and see how those sound or if not maybe open up your muffler connection and see if you like the sound it produces... Will it be more free flowing? Ultimately Yes... So to your question, its really a matter of your exhaust layout and personal preference if it will work for you on your civic. Hope that helps! GL and enjoy the process if you decide to go that route🏁
@@SimplyEddieG thx man ur a goat
🙏🏼Thanks bro appreciate that 💯
The link to the eBay tip doesn’t work anymore could you provide another link or exhaust tip?
Sorry about that but that's who I originally bought it from... However there are many choices and styles available on ebay... Try this link Below while mine did say 4" it maybe 3.5" because of the duo inside and they just had to correct the listings cause i don't see a 4" no more. Hope this helps Bailey!

Hey just wondering how it's doing. Is it still Holding up well?
Hey Jamil thanks for asking... I have a video coming up down the line where I did an ISR Exhaust Y-pipe install and when I did it, it ultimately raised the exhaust slightly and had my exhaust tip hitting the bumper... and because it was rusted due to weather out here n not coating it I couldn't bend/flex it to bring it more down... So I just replaced it with a similar one... Other then that if I didn't do my exhaust y-pipe she would still be running well 🙌🏼
Do you still have the resonator on?
Yes, Resonator still on, just a muffler delete as mine was already broken which essential was leaking lol... Thats why I ultimately ended up doing a simple muffler delete for now cause I love the sound and the simplicity of it.
What did you use to cut the pipe
Hey Ronan, Check out the links in the description for the items used in the vid🙌🏼+ your local autoparts store may have the exhaust cutter available as a renter to save you some funds hope that helps and GL lmk if anything!
I’m doing this to my truck and I live in houston and it doesn’t snow here. Can I keep this on for a while or so I need to eventually get a steal pipe. Or could I keep the flex and make sure no rusting is happening?
Hey brother, good question... it's not 304 stainless steel so yes it will gather some rust over time... I live in NY so it just blended in with my existing exhaust by now with our 4 seasons 😅 but you can either paint it with a good coating before installing #1 or #2 get the stainless steel model I came across on ebay from the UK, however with shipping and trying to keep cost down you may just want to go with the coating route. Either way good luck brother and lmk which route you take🤟🏼
Did you get all that at auto zone?
😎 All there brother🙌🏼
Does that flex pipe rattle ?
Hey Tony Good question! No rattles over here bro she sounds clean, even done a few cold starts for the IG story. She sounds smooth and works great! 🤘
Any rattles?
No rattles over here!🙌🏼
Did this in high school.
Go ahead if you dont mind a rattling exhaust😔😔
Why the negativity my guy... We definitely put in the works differently cause theres No Rattles over here, In fact if you in NY dm me on IG and u can check it out at the next car meet. Sorry yours turned out that way.
Does the pipe wobble any?
Hey Alfredo, It stays while driving and while having fun in parking lots it has held up and stood in place. Tbh one of my friends did say it wobbled alil while going sideways, not much but it did remain in its original position when finished.
Hope this honest review helps and for a $35 fix till you decided which exhaust to go with, it definitely is still is a option to enjoy!🙌🏼🙏🏼
Muffler what is it purpose
To reduce the sounds and pressure from the exhaust of engines.
That don’t look nice. I mean I think it does but you said to tell you it doesn’t 😂
😂🤣😂💀 Thanks my guy appreciate you🤟🏼
@@SimplyEddieG 😂👍🏻
You think If I did this I’d pass safety in hawaii
Lol brother I have no idea, can't even tell you inspection requirements for neighboring states to be honest... Best course of action would be to ask your friend who inspects your car or whoever inspects your car, but good luck and stay safe!🤘🏼
@@SimplyEddieG I have a question with my muffler delete on my car if I bought a aftermarket exhaust and had it welded on to the rest of my factory exhaust would it make a sound difference or would it sound the same as it did with just the muffler delete?
Hey Jones, good question... Yes it will make a difference if you were to delete even the aftermarket muffler. Within some mufflers depending on the car, there are channels and or materials used to dampen the noise. Even within a aftermarket muffler, the channels are still there to provide a specific flow/sound... Granted on a more larger scale to provide better performance, but with deleting the muffler it will by-pass those channels within the muffler and provide a straight exit of the exhaust system... With that said and in regard to your aftermarket Muffler, it may provide a louder tone by removing that part, performance wise don't expect much from deleting an aftermarket muffler unless you have a major set up/tune to compliment the deletion. Hope that helps and happy holidays boss🤘🏼
@@SimplyEddieG thanks for the reply I ended up buy a 18 inch Spec-D exhaust and my local shop welded extra piping on the rest of my factory exhaust pipe then welded the aftermarket exhaust on the new pipe.happy holiday bro👍
Most welcome brother and happy holidays to you to!🙌🏼🙏🏼
Atleast clean the garage my man xD
😂🤣😂💀 its all gooddd 🙌🏼 I bundle my projects lol for that reason... I Wait till I have 2 or more projects and pick a weekend to just knock it all out, leave things as so as work continues, then clean up... that way i dnt work, clean up, work, clean up, and just save time by batching my work n content 🤙🏼
