    has this been done? angled universal muffler?

    Been thinking how I want to do my exhaust and I think i have a cool new idea but im not sure if its been done before. my idea is to find something like this
    http://www.ebay.com/itm/UNIVERSAL-AN...sories&vxp=mtr

    hopefully i can find something of better quality than this junk....
    and pair it with this
    3am burned out at work sketch.

    (my car doesnt really smoke like this, i just wanted the added effect)
    and come up with something cool.
    I want the muffler to sit at almost a 45 degree angle to the rear of the car, but the turned down tip would be facing strait back so it would come out of the car strait.
    thoughts? input?

    Shit, I know there is someone either on here or CR with the turned down tip. I just can't remember who it is, but I see his build thread quite often. I'm pretty sure it's custom though. Lemme spend a little time searching for you and I'll get back to you.

    Edit : Here's one, but it's not the exact one I was thinking of.

    A certain Miata on here used to have that very same muffler.

    I guess I was wondering if anyone had mounted the muffler rotated 45 degrees so that the round exhaust exits parallel to the ground, and not down towards it.
    Thanks for the video and info so far.

    Oh so not a turn-down, but a turn-sideways kinda thing? I didn't know that's what you meant.

    Yeah just get a muffler shop to make a tip for you or something. Shouldn't be too expensive.

    well im not really looking for someone to make me a tip. couldnt you in theory just run the cheapy muffler i posted above rotated sideways? maybe it would be too short, but im not sure.
