Exhaust removal

[V6Kiwi]

Hi all I am wanting to remove the exhaust on my ph2 as it is a QuickTime and the noise is stopping me enjoying the car. Is this an easy job? Does it require me removing the rear bumper? All helps and tips greatly accepted. Thanks

It’s an relatively easy job. Even easier on a lift with a spare pair of hands.
The clamps can seize, plenty of maintenance spray and leverage required. Replacements are usually needed.
The rubber hangers may have perished too.

Removing the bumper allows for easy alignment manipulation of back box with the exit holes - which may or may not be indicated.

It will be much easier with the bumper removed and the car on a ramp so you can get underneath it.

Is the bumper an easy thing to remove?

This was written when several members bought Quicksilver backboxes in a group buy many moons ago... I was included but have subsequently switched to Spike backbox.
