that drives me nuts... people who dont know much and dont work on their own cars shouldn't be "penalized" by going to some ****** ******* getting paid 8 bucks an hour at a ****** MUFFLER AND BRAKE CHAIN for godsake to find out later his car is fucked up.... you would think that the shops SPECIALIZING in exhaust work would be a good choice... hell no, go with someone you trust and usually that is a small shop with a few dedicated customers. Nobody except the dealer for warranty work or my mechanic of 10 years who rebuilds rotaries will work on my car besides me.



I know I'm going off a little, this is more intended for Midas and ***** chains to where you are talking to the mechanic trying to explain, "yeah, this car has 4 lug hubs so make sure you get the pads for normal suspension" and the guy shrugs you off like you're a ****** idiot when this **** is important. :rant:

well this was not a chain place. It was a place called three star muffler. Which makes you wonder why anyone would go there since usually 5 stars is the best. Oh and on each end of the building in BIG letters covering the whole wall it says "NO MUFF TOO TUFF" haha

I have one converter on my car, its not melted

Converters are all made of the same material inside, as long as it has a stainless casing, its fine for a rotory.

The new RX-8 has some special converter, I wonder how much they would clean the emissions of a older 7?
