Wicked Bad Cobra Bite

[buddyg]

Got a nasty one myself about a month ago, took over a week for it to stop hurting and begin healing. I know better about stepping over the pipes, but was getting out with my left leg when my shoe came off my right foot. Then I made my fatal mistake by leaning back to retrieve my right shoe which pulled my left leg right onto the pipe!

OUCH!

I always tell whoever is riding with me when we shut the car off to watch the pipes!

Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but couldn't find anything newer. I'm a new owner of a MKIII with sidepipes (and a 351). Has anyone come up with a kit to replace the sidepipes with a full underbody exhaust system? Aside from the burn hazzard to curious onlookers, the noise is irritating to me after a few miles. So I want to swap out the sidepipes with something that will make the car more pleasant to me and others. Thoughts? No, selling it and buying a Prius isn't the solution...

There's a thread on this at Rerouting exhaust

Another, more recent thread here: Re: 427 FE engine, under car 'street' exhaust system?

You could also try searching "under car exhaust" and select "show posts" - you'll get lots of hits.
