exhaust pipe
hi,
my my exhaust pipe for my smartech with a .15 is leaking in the joints. i have tried to use silicon but it did not work. any suggesgions? also i was thinking about getting a tuned pipe, is it true that these make the vehicle faster?? also will a different brand tuned pipe suited for a .15 fit mine?

RE: exhaust pipe
You will see a difference in over all performance with a tuned pipe. Just about any brand will be a big improvement over the stock smarttech muffler. Just be sure to get one for a .15 size engine. (I wouldn't spend a whole lot of money to get top of the line, just get a good priced pipe.)

RE: exhaust pipe
If it's leaking at the coupler, go to the LHS and buy a new coupler. If the muffler itself is leaking, throw it away instead of wasting materials and time on it.

RE: exhaust pipe
