tsudo
 
I just put my tsudo on last night and there is a burning smell when the car us running is it just because the exhaust is new I've never seen a new exhaust do that before though. Also it said it came with a silencer, does that come pre installed?

The smell is the oil off your hands from installing it,it will go away and as for the silencer,you can take it out.

Take the silencer out. I think it sounds better with it removed. My neighbors might not think so though lol.

This, I usually wear gloves when working with exhaust parts.

dayhoff35 05-22-2010 01:03 AM

arman14 05-22-2010 01:06 AM

just pull it out with some pliers

dayhoff35 05-22-2010 11:52 AM

ok and stupid question the silencer is the thing on the inside of the exhaust tip right?

Pedobear 05-22-2010 12:06 PM

yes, mine was held in with 2 screws

dayhoff35 05-22-2010 12:15 PM

i took the screws out then what did you do?

dandaman15 05-22-2010 12:24 PM

Pull it out. It is in there pretty good.

warrenb213 05-22-2010 02:47 PM

a rubber mallot can help to vibrate the silencer loose. not too hard of taps, don't dent your tip. ;) hahaha

i'll have to take a vid from behind my car sometime. tsudo....wow :)

dayhoff35 05-22-2010 04:44 PM

i took a flat head screw driver and tried to pry it out and that did no good and i broke a pair of pliers trying to pull it out too lol well i guess ill just to go get a more heavy duty pair and try again

warrenb213 05-22-2010 09:21 PM

combine ur idea and mine = win.

tru2nrtt777 05-25-2010 09:05 PM

I was in autotech at the time and used the college shop's pull hammer, came out in one hit. Get a pull hammer from sears, use it in the parling lot, take it back a few minutes later... or ask around to some local shops if they have one and if you can borrow it for a minute...

I cant access my silencer pics because they are on myspace but here is how the exhaust should look without the silencer...

take a coat hanger, bend it in half and make a hook on one end. and put it threw the silencer hold and pull it out
