Default accordhybrid:exhaust problem fixed

Sup broham. How was SEMA? I bet it was off the hizzle fo shizzle:thumbup:

Anyways, when we installed my sway bar, remember how the exhaust would hit/rub on the bar/lower control arm? I went to the shop today and dude redide the piping from the resontor to the muffler to take care of that problem, as well as have the resonator running straight back like it's supposed to, not cockeyed like it was.

Because of the minimal clearance of the piping, when I'd start the car up it hid the bar/control arm, not anymore. He also put on a
J-hook hanger(middle of the car, remember the short one?) and added a hanger in the back(remember there wasn't one back there?) so now everything is copacetic and no rattles

Yeah, from looking at the way they redid my piping, clearance shouldn't be an issue, but we'll see.

Man i wish i could say i had a great time at SEMA no money plus I have to reg the car and smog so yeah short on funds but that's cool man i'm glad that you got the exhaust fixed. Also Carlos it no more money for me for the progress sway cause the ST for christmas last year so No money out of my pocket and so it will cost me all of 50 bucks for the progress bar.
