Greddy Evo 3 removing the silencers
Hey guys, anyone on here having difficulty removing the silencers on the Evo 3? I removed the three hex bolts and tried yanking it out with a flanged bolt. Feels like the silencers were welded on. I also tried turning the car on for about 10 minutes to let the metal expand a bit but still no luck. Any tips?
Thanks guys! |

pull moar harder?
Try some liquid wrench, depending on how long they have been in there they could be carbon'd into place.

Greddy Evo 3 removing the silencers
When putting back mine (after giving it one day without), I wedged one of them wrong and I had a really hard time pulling it out. I used a thick clothes hanger that I bent to hook the deep end of it and pulled very slowly increasing the force... Ended up on my ass with the silencer flying out but it worked.
Good luck!

The silencers in all exhausts are a bitch, it's because they have to be fitted so tight. In my experience you usually have to knock them out from the back using a wooden dowl or something similar. I have wrestled them out with a screw driver and a pair of vice grips before, but you'll fuck the silencers up a bit.
