Switched Muffler Bypass

[Todd Owlett]

I want louder exhaust, but not all the time. Has anyone installed a bypass that can be switched on and off, by remote or otherwise?

I used this, and I had a local shop replace the factory resonator with it. I had them add V bands incase I wanted to change the sound... I absolutely love it

Cool, any chance you have photos of what it looks like under the car?

How does it sound when it's not wide open, going through the muffler but no resonator?

Sounds pretty close to stock, there's a deeper burble at idle but nothing crazy noticeable

I feel like the resonator delete on the stock exhaust was one of the best cheap exhaust modifications you can do, adds some nice tone without being blow-your-ears-off loud. Not to mention it's cheap when compared to aftermarket exhausts

I took a quick vid of the exhaust from right below the muffler, halfway through I open the valve

Where did you run the wire into the cabin?

 

[Grsemky]

I ran the cable through the symposer tube, I have my amp power cable running through the same spot. I then used a keyed power source by the dead pedal so I don't drain the battery needlessly... Though doing it that way I have power cable zip tied along the cowl mounts, it works but I should've been less lazy and used one of the firewall grommets on the passenger side and a fuse tap in the fuse box behind the glove box.

I used a local shop to weld it up and I think they charged me like $80, but it maybe took like 40min to route all the wiring and powered... I do recommend v bands so you can clock the dump properly like I had too, the welding place originally had the motor sitting at the 5 o'clock position and that was too close to the ground
