Seems like it could be done, only problem would be filling the original holes, which im sure you could do. I like it.

 

[gtpkid2004]

It would take some time...but i can very much to it...just gotta find a bumper cover....cheap..

i'll just cut the orinal holes out...kinda put a middle peice in...mold it all together and put it in the middle...and just fill in the cut holes with some plastic


With the pastic i cut out in the middle, put that on the sides....

Hum.....

[superchargedgp]

would you run single or dual muffler

 

[gtpkid2004]

Is there room to put 2 mufflers?...i still gotta look under the car...maybe some modding will need to be done....i'd rather go 2.....if not...will 1 hurt my flow?

[syP]

im assuming dual, then it would cut inwards.... more bends tho

POOOOOPER PIPES!!!!

 

[gtpkid2004]

Am I missing something...
What the hell are....

POOOOOOOOOOPEEER PIPES?!?

[Royalgtp]

get those corvette tips that come together but on the ends for kind of a flare or half arc!

 

[Fish]

Looks good. Since you would be taking the "PONTIAC" out, see if you could emboss "Grand" on one side, and "Prix" on the other.

 

[Kyle]

i like the originality but i dont really like it myself.

just never been a fan of dual centered exhaust.

 

[98 TGP TOY]

Make it completely original. Dont try to copy any other car, especially the corvette....i cant stand civics, fieros, and trucks that "drop" in the corvette break lights.....drives me nuts. Too tacky, IMO.

Good luck.

2 problems with this.

1. having the exhaust exit there will settle things coming out of the tail pipes to settle on your tail/trunk. It'll get dirty a lot. Having the exits closer to the outside edges will carry exhaust away from the car. I did this on a car once, and the back was always dirty.

2. To fit it correctly, you would have to cut out the spare tire well.

 

[imported_GraFFix]

Honestly...it looks terrible but hey its not my car or time so do what you want to do...lol. then again Ive always hated exhaust that came out of the center....just my opinion though.

Although you could fill the whole rear facia in and run a side exhaust...now that might be cool lookin

Joeyboy has that setup on his car, but he has a bodykit that allows the back to come into the middle for the pipes. And there is no need to cut the spare tire rack because exhaust pipe is easily bendable for a shop to do.

 

[fastcash]

someone has done it. it was silver and had a ricer body kit. someone on the east coast

 

[LPSPEED2]

actually the silver with the bodykit is the guy i was talking about, hees from chicago. Joeyboy77

Yup, I had Jim do it,he has some pics at his shop also. It is TOG's to 2.5 split. the mufflers are angled on the slant of the spare tire housing. My mufflers stick out from the car about 1-2 inches, so I do not get any exhaust on the car. Ill get a pic of the underside today. I have to rerun my IC lines once I receive some stuff from Mike K. It is doable. I wanted mine more spread apart, like anoter 2-4 inces, so tere was a gap between them, but they came out alright.
There is probably anoter car like mine out there, save for my graphics. AED did make a few, The car I have happens to be the prototype. You have the skills, try it

Here is my exhaust, they are magnaflow street series or someting like that, got a real good deal at hottexhaust.com.

Joe-I see a girl driving your car around all the time, she looks good too. Unless its a clone of your car...................copycats!!!

 

[dole21]

with the extra bends like that doesn't it cut down some exhaust airflow somewhat? I'd think anyway it would...

That is just crazy. Im usually the only one who drives the car. Ill be looking for the girl... A hot girl drivin a GTP, that is the best, hell any girl driving a GTP is hot. There are 3 girls I see on my way to work everyday. I always smile at them. If there is another with yellow flames, well, that is interesting....

As for the bends... The arent that much, there are only 2 or 3 new bends, at the mufflers, and they arent too restrictive, they are about 30-45 degree..

I had some downtime installing my IC lines, I broke a hose connect in half and just about threw my new pump across the street. If little kids werent around, I would of had a shit fit.

Here are a pic of the exhaust.

 

[joeyboy777]

Everything is set up the same as a regular GTP. The main difference is that they are angled. The one on the drivers side has the bigger bend, but it is not that bad. The in and outs on the exhaust are both on the same side, wheras the regular exhaust is both in out in the both in the center. That s aheing to think about the muffler will have to have diferent in/out than stock, and hould efacto in th cost. Alo, an exhaust needs restriction to pull the exhaust. Jim came up with sizes to make sure it wasnt overkill/not enough.
I just noticed, you can see my other baby in the background.... Jim did her exhaust also. Originally had flowmaster f40's, now Magnaflow. Magnaflow OWNS all. Real nice note, not too rough, mild, with low drone inside.
