Fair Price for swapping Tips

[Glockafella]

I got some res delete 4" Tips I want to put on my stock exhaust, I need the old tips back and in good shape for a friend who wants to buy them for his CV.


How much $ should this cost?

I had a 1 1/2" extension welded on my 4" tips along with bolt-up flanges that allow me to swap out the res-delete with the OEM tips. I think the total was around $150 or so for parts and the work on both sets of tips and the install.

Mine were cut off, hallowed out and rewelded back on for $40.00.

I spent $40 here too

Basically the tail pipe goes in about another 8-10" is all and a crush gasket between the pipe and the cone. Really easy job to make your own res. delete's.

and what is the point of doing that?

More noise.

it adds over .0001 Horses!

lol..... wow.....sounds like a must do mod!

Actually, the res-delete tips don't make it much louder, just a more mellow, pronounced tone.

However, if you swap out the OEM mufflers for Magnaflowa, etc., it will get louder.

I have enough hot air coming out of my wifes mouth :beatnik:

Really though, I cannot find a video if a stock exhaust with res delete tips. I have heard them described as throaty, mellow, deeper, pronounced, solid.

Anyone got a Stock exhaust with res delete tips only and made a video?

[justbob]

that was my very first mod and unfortionately I did not tape it. However there was only sudtle difference.

I keep hearing that, Really I bought the 4" res delete tips for the looks, so any exhaust tone difference is just a bonus.

I have vids from when my car had stock tips and then another after the deletes. I had magnaflows and 2.5" pipe though oh and 2 high flow cats, I'll try to remember to put them on youtube

yeah not so much a difference in volume as it is a difference in tone

[RoyLPita]

I am considering on getting this done. I have a set of tips sitting in my closet for over a year now.

Brian, I think you'll like the difference. Suggest extending the tips out an inch and a half or so to eliminate cabin drone at about 2,200 rpm.

[Glockafella]

Well as soon as it warms up I will get my rear cats removed and the Tips installed. I think thats as gnarly as I want my exhaust for now.
