exhaust route

Postby 98Rodeo » Fri Oct 02, 2009 4:38 pm

Hi all,
I am shortly going to get a 3" dump pipe and 3" straight thru exhaust on my 2.8 Rodeo,
Was wanting to hear from others who have had the exhaust running straight down the right hand side and where it runs from before the fuel tank.
Some photos would be awesome..
also any recommendations for a muffler/resonator?
i was thinking a simple resonator jsut to stop the drone on the highway as i do 35km all highway each way to work every day.

Thanks

Geoff

I'm lucky here in Florida, there's no vehicle inspections, can pretty much get away with any thing, seems like thier prety strick over there, I didn't think they were untill I got in the club,I guess I'd been watching to many MAD MAX movies

Not sure about ozzy rules, but there are alot of rules in nz about exhausts, they have to be out of the way so people can't burn themselfs getting in and out, exit behind the last openable window (i think), and the tip must protrude to the outside of the vechile.
Oh how i miss my mu, the lux is just not the same :(
