Help with custom exhaust
 
First off all I just wanted to introduce myself, Hi I am wally. I bought my GT86 this Saturday 2017/05/06, i'm totally loving the car but I can't keep my fingers away and want to start modifying it.

So my first mod are going to be on the exhaust to get a more deep toan to the whole system. Instead of going out and buying one I thought I would do one myself. It's cheaper and i've done it on my other cars before with a great result.

I noticed that the muffler is bolted onto the pipe going from the cat. I don't want to cut in the original muffler so I was wondering if it's possible to buy a pipe that already got these types of flanges and also the bending shape on it? Heres a picture of which pipe im talking about.

CONGRATULATIONS on your purchase , wally, and WELCOME to the forum ......:clap:

It might be faster and less expensive to have a muffler shop fabricate you a pipe and weld that flange to it.

Maybe others will know where you may source a store bought one ..... :iono:

You haven't said exactly what you plan to make yourself. Exhausts for this car can be found online for dirt cheap. Unless there was some very specific and specialized plan you had there is probably very little advantage to making your own.

I myself are just looking for a muffler delete at the end. I like the original concept I just dislike the sound. I've found some complete systems but I dislike the tips off them. If I was to make my own custom one I would go with something like this. https://shop.klracing.se/bilder/artiklar/01543.jpg

2 of those on each end and skipping the big muffler in the middle. Basically the supra exhaust but on both sides.

So just a basic muffler delete? Easy to find. Can you even get away with that in Sweden?

Yeah it's just a simple muffler delete, on my bimmer it was easy to do since I had no bolts on it. But since I have a bolt on this one I thought you needed a pipe with gaskets. So thats why I was woundering if anyone sells just a pipe with gaskets already on it. Nope I haven't had any problems with the cops here in sweden.

Both of the camaros that I drive got straight pipes, also my old bimmer had it. The inspection staff have never said anything about it either.

Not sure if you have auto wreckers there like we do but if you do just go and by the section of pipe you want to start at and cut it off after the flange.

Sounds like you want a MY 2017 specific axleback muffler delete. Would be cool if Nameless updated theirs.

Correct, however I don't want a premade exhaust system just looking for the pipe that you have to connect.
EDIT: Looked on the exhaust you linked and it actually has a nice ending to it.
