So... finally mounted a header to my '86 2.5l 2-door, which has a 2.5" collector, reduces to 2.25" to a flowmaster 50 series just in front of the rear axle (no cat.) Then its the stock 2" up and over the axle to exit near the pass side shackle (may replace this portion, due to small hole and rust.)
Sounds great! almost dead quiet at idle, but when driving, there's a heavy drone in the cab. BTW, it's a 2 door that I chopped the back off of, so there's nothing behind me but air
Do I need to relocate the muffler? would a heat shield plus high temp sound deadener help?
Additionaly, I get a lot of fumes drafted back up into the cab when using engine compression to slow down. Where would you dump the exhaust?
Thanks
I'd post pics, but still can't figure out how...
