getting a resonator-to-axle piece fabbed up on my yaris as i type....

we'll see how the gains are when i get it back in a few hours...

any interest in a resonator-back exhaust or a resonator-axle piece...just thinking people other than me might like to get more than an axleback since the magnaflow is A: super expensive and B: only for the sedan... and the nitto makes you lose the catylitic converters and you need an o2 sensor extension....

cali yaris · 10-02-2009, 03:54 PM

that would require cutting and welding the piece on. As long as people know it's not a bolt-on piece, it's a great idea!

hatchbackkid82 · 10-02-2009, 04:00 PM

i take it you want to keep your catalytic converter?

thebarber · 10-02-2009, 04:06 PM

keeping oem cat and resonator, cutting off the old exhaust and welding on a new one, essentially. the magnaflow exhaust for the yaris sedan does the same thing...but its 560$

i had to do the same w/ my magnaflow exhaust on my matrix, i know it makes a lot of people uneasy to cut/weld, but its not a big deal, stock can go back on if you part-out

interest..?

*tk-421* · 10-02-2009, 04:18 PM

how wide is the pipe? is it mandrel bent? what's the price?

hatchbackkid82 · 10-02-2009, 04:46 PM

Hmmmm...... I would rather just buy the MP and bolt that on instead of cutting my OEM pipe. I just think it's easier

Waiting for impressions. Interest depends on $ vs outcome. Nasty day for a little WOT though.

thebarber · 10-02-2009, 04:54 PM

easy depends on who you're getting to do it

and its just a feeler for now....2" is all we need if we keep the stock cat and resonator

but it depends on what pricing i can get

for a res-back exhaust itd be nice to come in under 500usd (that'd include a muffler)

It should be MUCH cheaper than that, even with a very good muffler. Don't get ripped off!

thebarber · 10-02-2009, 07:09 PM

mmmm, power to redline

2.25" crush bent aluminized steel midpipe....

posaunemeister · 10-02-2009, 08:32 PM

Cool. Now spray paint that bad boy... with some flat/gloss high heat black paint!

Do you mind stated the final price (including the muffler)? If you don't, I totally understand.

06silveryaris · 10-02-2009, 10:03 PM

Looks good

YaYa1320 · 10-02-2009, 11:41 PM

WORD!!!

ruimond · 10-03-2009, 12:09 AM

Same setup as mine pretty much, i think. Mine was cut at the same point. Then 2inch pipe bent from muffler to there. Can't see it as well on my photos.

thebarber · 10-03-2009, 12:47 AM

sound/vid clip of midpipe w/ megan axleback

thebarber · 10-05-2009, 10:33 AM

loving the midpipe. well worth the $

Saskatchewan17 · 10-13-2009, 12:39 AM

Very cool... but what are you really replacing? Putting straight pipe where straight pipe was in the MP section?
