What do you guys think of putting an N1 exhaust on the Montero Sport? I get a lot of mixed reactions - mostly negative though, but my image for my Montero Sport is more of a tuner/support vehicle theme. I'm not going for off roading or big speaker setups.  I'd get the exhaust for $90 shipped, a universal magaflow cat for $54 shipped, and have some exhaust shop weld it on with some stainless steel piping. I estimate it will cost maybe $400 total? |

it would have an upward slant to the right where the stock exhaust dumps out. my friend has an apexi n1 on his eclipse gsx and it sounds pretty nice. megan makes quality copies of the apexi n1 exhaust from what i've heard

i had a canister on mine it was like that but duel sounded good liked the look no one else had it. u would run a duel canister myself its more truck like, the single says i wanted a honda but i had kids. and the waa waa noise is only for the raspy *** honda's mine rumbled. if u can look past the blonde u can see mine it didnt last long cuz of the body kit and now with the bags im running a different canister but its under the truck before the axle. i say go loud or go home, lol!

yeah good call i ditched mine a while ago. u could tho with a slite bend out ward on it and the u can use the frame rail as a mounting point, a muffler shop should be able to do that for ya. Sorry i cant find any side pics. that was the best one i could find. i will say the canister i am running now was on one of my eclipse's so if u run the same one it should sound fine.
good luck

i think i'm gonna hold off the exhaust till winter is over...one less winter it will have to go through. plus i'm not looking to attract any attention from cops now that my windows are tinted. i probably won't care about that in a couple of months, just like how i'm not worried about my hids.

Well, I have yet to see a Montero Sport with what I plan on doing, but I decided (being the true Kentuckian that I am lol) I'm going to get straight pipes, ditch the spare, and run them out diagonally just behind the rear wheels with some long chrome 4 in. diameter tips. That's just me and my inbred redneck nature. I think it'd sound good with that low truck rumble.

I got streight pipe dual 5inch tips  they rublle nice and had many nice comments on it and some people not like me cause of it lol. Alot of people ask me how i make it rumble then i show them the tips. some had said it sound like a v8 just siting ther but then you can tell when you get down on it she wines like a import. I wish i had dynamat or sound damper all inside on my montero the sounds can get on your nurves some times and It`s so hard to creep around and you can bet if your teenage kid trys to stell it cause as soon as your crank it shes idels past 1k and back down and sounds like your reving it up with the pedal. I like to see some dual 4inch tips I wish I would have went with them insted of these big ol 5`s . Get stainless!!!!! |

so apparently we have to catalytic converters? maybe i'll just get new piping from the cats and stick an exhaust at the end. any flaws with this idea?

ok, i went to 2 exhaust shops who told me that it's not possible to put a canister exhaust on the montero sport. something about how there isn't enough room to do it. so the only option is to get a magnaflow/borla/flowmaster muffler and exhaust tip. this really sucks. anyone got any ideas on if it's still possible (i still want my spare tire in the spot that it is right now)
