NEED HELP REMOVING MY Exhaust SILENCER

[Scoop208]

I REMOVE THE PART U C IN MY HAND
BUT IS THAT ALL THAT COMES OUT?

I WAS THINKING ALL OF THAT METAL SHOULD COME OUT
BEING THE OTHER VENT THING AND THE MIDDLE PIPE

I THOUGHT THE MIDDLE PIPE WAS PART OF THE SILENCER

SOME ONE PLEASE LET ME KNOW? SO I CAN GO FINISH THIS ASAP

[deevergote]

Is there a screw going into the side of it holding it in?





Also... using all caps is a great way to ensure NOBODY helps you. It's the internet equivalent to shouting.

Good luck!

I Removed 3 Screws
2 Were In The Thing In My Hand
And Then There Was A Screw In Front Of The Vent Thing Going In The Pipe

[Scoop208]

But Am I Just Pulling The Vent Thing Out Or Is The Middle Pipe Cuming Out To ? Thats Wut Im Confused About

[Djmoua]

wow...a silencer-how-to...i'd hate to go back and find this thread as one of mine hahahaha

[Scoop208]

does the middle pipe cum out? please sum one

[deevergote]

If it does, be sure to wash your hands afterwards... that's icky.



Yes, the middle pipe should be part of the silencer. That's what it does... it reduces the outlet size, making it quieter. The outer diameter of your exhaust tip should be all that's left when you remove the silencer.

Try the coat hanger trick. If all screws have been removed, it should come out.

ok thanks thats all i needed to know, i have been wiggling it a lil bit but i just didnt want to pull it out if it shouldnt come out, im going to go try it get it al out now thanks

thanks very much

should i be put the hanger down the middle pipe or in the vent holes?

[turbo90accord]

use a slide hammer!

[deevergote]

I'd pull from the center as much as possible. Maybe even bend the coat hanger into a U, and hook the ends... put the hooked ends on the inside, and you'll be pulling from two spots... might make it come out straight, and therefore as easy as possible.

Some PB Blaster might lube it a bit as well... it won't hurt anything there.

I had that same problem with my civic, once they have been in there for a while, it seems to get stuck, I just used visegrips to grip the smaller pipe and wiggled and pulled, switching from side to side untill it came out if you can understand what I'm talking about lol.
