Chuck,

I attempted to do that with my last viper. Unfortunately there aren't any shops in my area that will do it for under 400 dollars. They all require me to put my car on a lift and do all the measurements before attempting the project. On my first attempt they almost dropped the car off the lift. The only shops that I would turst to do it would cost an arm and a leg for welding etc...they charge about 100 an hour just for labor here.

If you have any suggestions, I would be happy to hear them.

Thanks!

P.S. Do you know a guy by the name of Brett Hack who used to live in your area?

Ouch! I think I paid $125 (maybe less) to have my old muffler cut off, pipes put in its place and they welded my stock tips back onto the new pipes to retain the stock look. $125 was for parts and labor

In 2000, I paid $30 for parts and labor....stock tips back on. It only took a 1/2 hour start to finish. Of course labor is higher now, but it still should only take a half hour to do. Pretty basic stuff for a muffler shop.

How do you like the sound with the muffler delete?

I love mine! Sounds mean and loud, pops like crazy, but quiet enough to have a conversation when youre just doing normal driving


People drive have normal conversations and drive their vipers normally? LOL

I had a local muffler shop take off the muffler off my ACR to see how it would sound, but it wasn't perceivably any louder to me. I had an X-pipe made and now I love the sound it makes.

I don't think I know Brett Hack. What kind of Viper does he have? :)

A muffler shop did my delete for $150. Isn't Tom Sessions in your area?

Re: WTB: Muffler delete or Exhaust, gears, headers, etc etc...

Come on, one of you guys/gals out there has to have a muffler delete sitting in the garage or a used exhaust system up for grabs? Actually I'm thinking about headers too, so those can be included as well. Heck, I'm also thinking about 3.55s

Thanks!!

Muffler delete = 2 pieces of 2.5" pipe about 18" long each. Total cost.........probably about $15.
