Perrin Exhaust...experienced help please
Hey. I just installed....well mostly justin installed a perrin catback on my car.
We're having a couple issues.
I wondering who has had this exhaust before and who's had it on otherwise stock exhaust.
Mine is knocking pretty bad. Especially on start up and shut down. Just wondering if kartboy exhaust hangers would fix this or if there is something else.
Any help would be awesome...I'd like to fix it tomorrow night.
GotBoost...I hear you're the man to talk to about this so let me know.
Gagan....I'm gonna need some exhaust gaskets and possibly some hangers if you have them and it'll fix it. Leaking right now.

Thanks for the consolation...LOL, that was just a bad night all around....but atleast Charlie bought my Cheesesteak for me! w00t!
Anyways, The bushings I used were Whiteline I believe. They make 2 types...."short" and "long," get the "long" ones. I got mine from MPJ. I dont remember how much they were though....I'd guess about $20, but not 100% sure.

I pretty much aligned everything as best I could. Ted's right about the phatty exhaust hangers on that catback. They are huge. Its hitting the tunnel right after the midpipe.
Ray, I think the stock donut gasket will work to take car of the leak at the midpipe. Then you wouldn't need the other gasket that we put on.

hmmmm...I am trying to figure out who has exhaust hangers I can get.
I might have to have you pick them up today if we want to get on it right away. Unless I can pick them up in hayward and just get off at jackson instead of thornton coming over the bay.
I'll pick up some of that liquid gasket stuff just incase. Can't hurt anything to have it.
I'm more worried about stopping the knock than stopping the leak...though I want to stop them both so it's done.
Looks like I can leave here around 4:30. So if I don't have to make any stops I could be at your house sometime between 5:30-6.
Think we can knock the suspension out tonight?
