Need a Spot
My frame has a rust hole in the EXACT same place above the front leaf spring mount on the passenger side rear. Anyone else have the same issue? Is there a design flaw that causes this to happen? By the way, great job you're doing!

Some people don't like the tone, especially on a 4cyl.
However, w/ your drivetrain plans i think it will sound nice.


With 200+ Billion electrical parts, the world most complicated machine is inside your own skull.

It's also the worst flowing aftermaket muffler out there... creates alot of unwanted backpressure...

Here's a chart for you.

i believe it because the dynomax is a straight through design and the flowmaster has lots of baffles to create the sound.
