After work yesterday.
Stainlessworks 3.5" mandrel bent 304ss catback
Literally the only 3.5" exhaust I could find.
Muffler is only 3" and loud(which I figured)
Wasn't the right kit for my vehicle apparently. This wasn't made for something with a third cat on the y pipe.
Cut the ball and socket end off of the cat to where it's 3.5", then cut the 2.75" two bolt flange off of the new Cat-Back and welded the pipe to the cat.
Then realized the tip goes straight out the back so I cut that off and made it turned down behind the tire like the factory exhaust and definitely not putting a chrome tip on it. Prefer leaving the natural stainless but I might get fancy and slash cut the end of it later.
Definitely going to start looking for different mufflers that will fit to make it quiet again.
And this morning, opens up hp tuners and corrected the fuel trims from around +24(lean) with intake and exhaust, got it down to -3(rich) for now.
