What happens here

The driver identifies the specific flange where the modified exhaust will connect. Using a marker, they precisely mark the section of the pipe that needs to be cut to achieve the desired orientation and length for a straight-up exhaust. A reciprocating saw is used for the cutting process. The remaining heat wrap from the pipe is also removed.

Goal: Create a new, straight-up exhaust exit for improved performance.

Tools and materials

  • Damaged Exhaust Pipe Sections — The parts of the exhaust system being modified
  • Heat Wrap — Removing old, damaged heat wrap
  • Marker Sharpie — Marking the cut line on the pipe
  • Reciprocating Saw DeWalt — Cutting the exhaust pipe
