  • new exhust

    I am thinking about puting a new exhuest on my 96 chevy lumina wondering what would be better a single stright pipe or to Y it off after the cat and put on 2 glass packs I have a stright pipe with stock tubing right now would I gain much horsepower from the dual setup?

    you won't gain anything from a dual setup like that. It'll just be louder, lol


    96 lumina should have a 2.5" downpipe, that's a good start.. replace the cat with a hi-flow and then a muffler at the back of your choice. I prefer Hooker Aerochambers but they can be pricey, you can usually get Flowmaster Delta-flow 40 series mufflers for pretty cheap on ebay...


    Stay away from glasspacks, they flow terrible and sound like crap on a '660.

          on a small port 3100 you won't need bigger injectors, an intake wouldn't hurt though...


          for exhaust those summit mufflers are pretty nice for the price. and don't try to be louder than the fart cannon'd civics, they'll always win.. haha

                    well seriously i dont think you should compromise when it comes to what you want just cuz it costs a little more. you pay for what you get basically. if you find something you want and know the exact #, go on ebay and look for it. most shops on ebay dont post all they have and can get more stuff all you have to do is ask them. i just gave this same advice on the ga forum, get a good universal syst, a good muffler shop and have at it

                    also the prob with using the euro mufflers and that r!ce style is that it will sound like r!ce and then you are just an import in domestic clothing
