??Exhaust Replacement Racing and Street??
How much would be considered a fair price to have stock exhaust from the catalytic converter on back replaced, with a basic muffler? I just got another Rex and it needs exhaust work bad.
Also, what would the modifications be to run a straight pipe back to a muffler without the cat? Would it have a positive or negative effect on engine performance to bypass the cats to make the car suitable for racing? If so, what would need to be done to compensate for the changes?
Thanks,

Cool. I probably will do that soon.
My main problem right now is just finding an ultra cheap way to get any basic exhaust replaced on my car without much fuss, just so I can drive it around without smelling the fumes coming up from underneath me (there is nothing left behind the cat, no muffler, etc.)
If someone were to just run pipe back to a muffler without a cat, would that be fairly cheap to have someone do?

You will get nauseous, headaches, feel bad, lethargic, and possibly die. It takes days to get it out of your system, and builds up if you keep re-exposing yourself to it.
Get the exhaust out the back where it belongs.

Anytime baby!

Unless you want to DIE, stop driving like this. Carbon Monoxide poisoning is very real, especially with rotaries.

How much is a high flow cat, will it cut the fumes, and how much will it cut performance? I really cannot drive the car like this.

Mound, you need two things.
1) Get a new O2 sensor placed where headers collect.
2) THEN tune it.
The lack of O2 sensor will sometimes wreak havoc on an SE FI system.

So, how do I go about tuning this thing. It's obviously dumping too much fuel as it's backfiring and it smells horrible. If I can tune it up good to relieve some of the emissions until I can get a cat on there, I would be happy and keep the car. Otherwise, selah!
Right on.
