86 FC Stock Y Pipe
When I bought my FC the exhaust was cut behind the mufflers.
There was an pipe reducer on the end of the pipe below and I never knew there was a pipe in a pipe. Is the outside pipe to reduce temperature? I have to get a custom pipe made to connect the Y pipe back to the mufflers that were on the car. Not sure if I should just use a adaptor again or single out the inside pipe to connect to the mufflers. I know I should replce the whole thing but $$$ is pretty tight. Thanks for your replies.

I was also on a tight budget, I bought "Bosal" brand cat-back system at amazon.com
I'm happy with it, but if you're looking for that aggresive look and obnoxious sound then this is not for you. |
The stock pipe is heat shielded so that is why there are "2" pipes.
The stock diameter is pretty small,I think 1.75 so you can go bigger,just find some flanges and get a pipe fabbed up to whatever to want. |
OP, better keep an eye on those rusted ass hard lines, otherwise you could end up with no rear brakes and/or a nasty fuel leak.

that is not a stock exhaust system, the reduced pipe was a slip on exhaust as you can see by the squish clamp.
there is no inner and outer exhaust on a rotary, you just have a cheap slap together cheap exhaust system. |
What's your budget?
When my exhaust rusted out and I needed to find replacement, I calculated and figured I'd go with a good aftermarket cat-back instead. Corksport's cat-back exhaust for FC is around $400 and I went with that. Just something to consider if your budget allows for an upgrade. :) |
I've got a full stock exhuast from my 88 na, its all welded as one piece. If you're in california and willing to pick up ill give it to you for 50 bucks

The car is all pretty much stock and the outer pipe is a heat shield. It's going to be tricky to cut a few inches off the heat shield pipe to fit the adaptor pipe. Money is very tight and I'm hoping to fix the situation for less than $50. for both sides. Thanks again Mr. Styx |
