Gotta say, the jack/breaker bar combination is rather ingenious.

@AdmiralRustyShackleford 8 лет назад

+UndergroundTrev Slowly trying to break loose a stuck blot like that has a much greater chance of stripping the heads. It's better to hit the breaker bar with a hammer, the quick force will break it loose with less chance of stripping the head. I've never had problems with bolts that way, even rusted out ones as long as you soak them in penetrating oil and/or PB Blaster.

@derekcarson7976 8 лет назад

he is brilliant!

@HoweDoYouDo1999 5 лет назад

I honestly and of firmly believe if I did this I would have had less of a chance of breaking off a stud but I guess that was my mistake

@RyDeezy 4 года назад

That breaker bar technique was genius, must remember that if I find a stubborn bolt under my car..

This is hands down my favorite exhaust on the integra. Did this project back in January. Trying to find a similar catback for my RSX

Anthony Baron think it’s worth the $450 it costs now? When this video was made a couple years ago it was priced at $250.!

I like it thinking beyond a typical engineer and using a floor jack to brake loss nuts. nice! making the impossible possible

@Justaguyyoutubin 9 лет назад

cobra454tim So many problems with this comment.

@cobra454tim 9 лет назад

such as?

@cobra454tim 9 лет назад

break or brake?

@Justaguyyoutubin 9 лет назад

cobra454tim Well if you want to know...? "Brake" is an issue. "Loss" instead of loose. Youve got a few other grammatical errors including some double spacing. I was actually commenting on the idea that you think hes "thinking beyond a typical engineer". An engineers job is to find new ways to do things. Engineers are paid to think outside the box and rework traditional ideas. So your comment was sort of redundant and misplaced. Unless you were trying to say that he is thinking beyond a typical mechanic... In which case you would still be wrong because this is well known trick of the trade around shops.

Awesome video! I am loving the "Project Integra" series! Keep it up!

@EngineeringExplained 10 лет назад

Thanks! Doing my best to work on it. NEED. MORE. TIME.

@2ndBananaRacing 10 лет назад

Thumbs up for actually working on your car unlike most people Engineering Explained for future reference the midpipe refers to the section between the headers and the catback, and includes the cats (if the car has them). At least that's how it goes with most v engines. I've seen front wheel drive cars with a cat welded to the headers as well

@EngineeringExplained 10 лет назад

pooft Lee It was a pipe, in the middle, so I called it the middle pipe. :) But you've got the terminology correct.

@jonwal 10 лет назад

Neat trick with the breaker bar and jack. Way to improvise!

@steelbosgrove8446 10 лет назад

its great seeing you putting the theory into practice ! the use of the jack to losen the bolts was true genius too ! magic as always!

@quintessenceSL 10 лет назад

Using the jack with the breaker bar was pretty damn smart.

@EngineeringExplained 10 лет назад

Haha, thanks! I always say if you're working in a garage you must be at least A) Strong or B) Smart. Both is obviously ideal. :)

@Big_LosF 7 лет назад

i just wana thank u for this video. first time ever installing a cat-back an gotta say it was easier than i thought. keep in mind i did this on my own just by watching this video. keep the videos coming, very informative as always.

@uscf1 10 лет назад

using gloves while installing a stainless steel exhaust is smart because the oils and acids on your skin can cause 304 stainless steel to rust/corrode in those spots, especially in high temp applicants. stainless steel is not 100% stainless, and it's not 100% rust proof. it is simply more stain/corrode/rust resistant. thank you, Engineering Explained, for these helpful videos!

@FluffyZilla1 10 лет назад

@gtastuntcrew302 9 лет назад

I have had 2 Yonaka 2.25in exhausts over the years on my 97 LS and they are awesome!! Especially for how inexpensive they are.. Only thing I did was I had a different resonator welded up differently so that it sat up in the exhaust well like an OEM exhaust.. The "Droop" seems to be a pretty common issue with these exhausts.. Great video as usual!

@rts159 7 лет назад

I love your idea on breaking those nuts lose very nice way of thinking it's same with me when I couldn't find my oil filter remover so I used a screwdriver and hammered a hole into it and loosen it up (my dad taught me that) funny how the human mind works when you put it in good use

@7777legoman 9 лет назад

penatrating oil (usually flamable) + open flame = best idea ever

@EngineeringExplained 9 лет назад

+Cole Wright The propellants are highly flammable. Once the oil is out, it takes a significant amount of heat to ignite it. Not that I'm recommending you try to find out what that limit is...

@TheBrownGarage 10 лет назад

i got the very same exhaust but im putin it on a EK civic, which is shorter than the teggy so the cat part of the yonaka exhaust is almost touching the open end of the header, basically eliminating the cat ive just been too lazy to fabricate the header to resonator pipe

For a cat back exhaust do you need to remove the catalytic converter??

Its nice to see that your project is coming along well! Awesome job!

@anothersiguy 10 лет назад

I wonder if the lighter actually helped at all? I've always heard you need MAP or Oxy/Ace to get anything done, I've tried using propane in the past and it did nothing. I also tried PB blaster, a 19.2V impact, and using a jack on a breaker bar with a pipe on it and all I did was bend the breaker bar and I had to spend an hour cutting it instead. Maybe I just have bad luck with rusty parts...

@EngineeringExplained 10 лет назад

AgentHydra The lighter definitely helped. Heat is heat. I couldn't get it off without using it. I used a propane torch on a few that were more stubborn (and wouldn't budge just using the lighter), also did the job.

@JavierQ615 10 лет назад

Make a RWD integra. It has been done before and it is sooo nice.

@Topazu Год назад

Can you use any Catback for any car or is there certain ones? I have a 2014 Toyota Corolla and I'm trying to find a good one....google isn't helping very much

@ncexplorex4469 10 лет назад

Hey man. I love your videos, they help me a lot. I am an off road enthusiast and although this may not be your forté, there are many newcomers to the sport of rock crawling and such. With new drivers come new questions. I see you do know your stuff both on and off road but I would like to see some videos focused on the area of rock cralwing. Some topics are: roll cages, different sized axles, bigger tires and changes you would have to make to support them, and beadlocks. This would open more options for videos and I know you're probably close to running out of ideas for new ones. Thanks!

@EngineeringExplained 10 лет назад

Haha, thanks for the suggestions! I laugh because I'm not sure if your statement regarding "running out of ideas" is serious or not. I have too many ideas, not enough time. :)

@ncexplorex4469 10 лет назад

Engineering Explained well if you're not running out of ideas then I wouldn't worry about it! I say running out of ideas because you've covered about every topic and some more than once!

@marktyree7794 9 лет назад

My catalytic converter doesnt have 3 botls only 2, and the cat back i bought has 3, what do i do?

@johnnym9498 10 лет назад

I have a stock teggy.. What would I want to do to it first. It's gonna be my first project car (not stick shift tho) :/

@sinnieleeonUtube Год назад

Is there a flex pipe installed with the original catalytic converter ? If not, when do you need one ? My mechanic told me I need one BUT I don't see one in yours.

@zookinthe6ix461 5 лет назад

Think you can help me with a situation. My cat Is complete clogged and the flanges are leaking bad. Causing horrible performance loss, I figured the easiest solution. Galvanized flex exhaust hose / remove cut off the cat and replace. I have o2 simulators so it makes no difference. You think this could work.

@sebbekartellen6493 7 лет назад

I installed a cat back exhaust on my car today!! It took about 3 hours just to remove 2 rusty bolts from my old exhaust...

@karwinchau4684 2 года назад

I want a yonaka exhaust too however I have a 4dr integra 1999 gs. I been seeing a lot of reviews for 4dr folks like me, people saying it’s too low and it be scraping on the road bumps.

@RecklessArdor 6 лет назад

Have to give it to you, those tires are beautiful. Nice treads

@JohnDoe-yj5ng 9 лет назад

I noticed at the end of the video that the intermediate pipe was hanging a little low, did you go back underneath the car and adjust the hight of the pipe?( otherwise you'll scrape it going over a speed bump and ruin the finish)

Great videos man. Keep it up. This project is going to be great when it's done.

@drfizzle420 9 лет назад

Will be doing my catback on my integra soon

@mivanp2185 6 лет назад

Just out of interest would it be better to first loosen all bolts whilst it's still in position rather than when it's hanging down. Putting pressure on the other bolts left in. Just curious? Great watch by the way!

@fdamien80 10 лет назад

Mid pipe is offly low or just the camera angle?

@EngineeringExplained 10 лет назад

A little bit of both.

@CedarKnollsUnicycle 9 лет назад

I'm curious about the jack you used. It seems to have a lot of height, and I'm looking for one that lifts higher than the old reliable Craftsman. Also, I like the part about breaking the bolts using a jack. I ended up having to cut and drill out a very stubborn bolt.

@jillianmoreira6003 8 лет назад

I saw that you bolted the cat back right into the stock catalytic converter, I have a set-up in my garage now and cannot fit it direct. The yonaka cat back is 2.5 inch, I'm getting 2" from the cat forward.

@Oblithian 8 лет назад

Bolt on exhausts, so much easier. No cutting, no welding, no clamps. The new exhaust sounds pretty good.

@epicidey4328 10 лет назад

FINALLY ITS UP

@daviewavie112 6 лет назад

Any idea how to get this to fit on a 98 gsr? 94-99 gsr has a shorter A pipe than every other integra model so the yonaka cat back doesn’t reach the cat converter. I emailed yonaka if getting both the yonaka exhaust header and cat back would solve the fitment problem and they said their cat back exhaust ends with a three bolt flange and their exhaust header ends with a two bolt flange. And they still recommended having s muffler shop add a length of test pipe. Maybe also getting the yonaka high flow catalytic converter would solve the issue?

@TheElitarin3 6 лет назад

My cat-back exhaust didn't come with metal hangers, any suggestions on how to hang them if they didn't come with the hangers?

@MyEyesBled 9 лет назад

What's with the jack on the breaker-bar? It may also be a good idea to start it up and check for leaks BEFORE lowering the car. Otherwise, good job!

@EngineeringExplained 9 лет назад

+MyEyesBled Bolt was stuck.

@SCman1337 8 лет назад

I have seen and heard from mechanics that stuck bolts respond to heat and oil better if you use the heat first, then the oil. The oil quenches the metal and penetrates much better. Great video

@XHikotheproX 10 лет назад

Sounds good man, kinda deep tone not ricey. While removing weight and gaining a few hp. Im assuming you still have those other parts too right? Like the intake manifold, and i think there were headers too...

@EngineeringExplained 10 лет назад

Patrick H Yep, still have other parts to mess with!

@XRunner2628 10 лет назад

every time i see someone unscrewing a nut of a bolt or screw I HAVE to think "lefty loosey, rightey tightey"

@imonittonite 10 лет назад

The concrete blocks under your ramps should be repositioned with the holes facing up. The way you have them, they are weak and susceptible to failing under pressure.

@EngineeringExplained 10 лет назад

Yep, but they didn't fit. The center is positioned so that it would take the hit. Hopefully concrete does okay under compression.

The video doesn't justify the beautiful sound the Yonaka exhaust gives. I have this cat back on my 97 ex civic and she sounds great. Awesome exhaust if you DON'T want a fart can, which this ISN'T. Great video by the way!

@7150285 10 лет назад

The catalyac converts some of the exhaust gas to oxygen that's why there's usually another O2 sensor after the catalac converter?

@EngineeringExplained 10 лет назад

7150285 Yes, to tell how efficiently it's working.

@rickeyl.mcspaddenii4729 8 лет назад

But i have a little question at 9:40 and after it looks like the new pipping sits too low....almost scraping the ground...is it just the angle of the camera that makes it look like it or is it really too low ? Oh btw the new exhaust sounds mean!! great sound :PP

@RobotZJ 10 лет назад

Nice video. Hopefully yours doesn't sound ricey like my DC catback did on my D16Z6. I added a vibrant resonator to the middle pipe and am thinking about a vibrant street power muffler to replace the DC sports. Nothin worse than a fart exhaust IMO. Good luck. You got 1.8 liters I'm guessing right? Might help having more CFM than my 1.6
