Ah, mr no hood boy chopping the exhaust off to save weight now
Why not just take everything off the car that doesn't interfere with the ability to drive it. Fenders, doors, all the glass and so on.

Ahhh haha, I knew someone would reply by saying something dumb and irrelivent. ugh. Get over it. I'm sick of explaining form over function. Should have been more specific main reason, REDUCES BACKPRESSURE. And I like cost effective mods. Now what?

Dude you should be able to understand that, I just checked your webpage, your car is nasty, you "get it" so why you gotta be dissin? Saving 77LB's with lexan instead of glass for winshield, hatch, windows sounds good. But removing everything? Dude quit talking out of your @SS. Makes you look stupider than you are.

wow, how is Evil's car nasty? it runs 11's street legally through a full exhaust system! well, if nasty is a good thing, then i guess that is pretty NASTY!
HEY EVIL, YOUR CAR IS NASTY!
heck, my car may not look all that nice, but at least it is tasteful. i had a crappy base to start my car on, beat up old v6 car that reeked of cigarettes. now, i have a car that needs paint and the rest of the interior to get here, but the main parts of the car are solid. car ran a 13.75@100mph on 87 octane fuel, not many 305 guys can claim that!
personally, i think that not running an exhaust is silly. i can understand not having money, i have less than $3000 in my WHOLE car, but it works well.

Nasty IS A GOOD THING, just like "sick and ill" ......Oh well I guess we're on different wave legnths here....im 20 years old and grew up in Boston....It's just slang for "cool'....old timer.
Why is not running a full exhaust "silly" Do you not see the benifits?
Tastful? To each his own bro.
My car works well also. What is your point?
I think the problem is that alot of people here are sooo closed minded.
People what don't conform to the "norm" get bashed on. Screw that.
Get out of your little box.

i like exhaust on my car cause it sounds better. open exhaust on a stock 305 sounds like *****.
i probably have one of the better sounding 305's(and probably in the top 20 fastest n/a 305's too) on the board, but that's cause i have hedman longtube headers>h-pipe>dual summit racing chambered mufflers.
want to race another 305? bring it on man.

If that's not talking out of one's @SS I don't know what is.
Hey General, I just thought I'd show my pipes, if you can't agree that the basic principals of saving weight, reducing back-pressure and costing nothing are at work here then I don't get you. You are just too smart for me. Look I should clear this up, The car is not my daily driver anymore, it's a track only car now. I have a motorcycle to ride in my traffic conjested town. Anyway I'm just having fun with my car, and not taking stuff so seriously. When I get enough $$$ to build a sweet motor, then I will. But for now I'm looking at every aspect of FREE performance I can get. Trying to do all the little things that bug me, before I start spending the green.
"i personally dont care for the sound of a car with a y-pipe and no muffler exiting right there...it sounds like it needs exhaust on it ...but its your car so go for it just dont expect others to think its "cool" or "nasty"...LOL "
Ya It's just more functional. The sound does not bother me too much.
Sorry if my car offends you trendy guys... ppphhhahahaha!

"huh, wow, i am 1 1/2 months older than you.

Sorry there buddy....
who cares how old you are? using "slang" on the internet is a little childish considering your talking with people all over the world who may or may not know what your talking about.
like you?
i like exhaust on my car cause it sounds better. open exhaust on a stock 305 sounds like "*****."
What? SLANG?!?! aahhhrrrr!?!
i probably have one of the better sounding 305's(and probably in the top 20 fastest n/a 305's too) on the board, but that's cause i have hedman longtube headers>h-pipe>dual summit racing chambered mufflers.
cool I dont, I have a chopped stock system...see the photos??
want to race another 305? bring it on man.
Ok you drive to california.

2. i guess so .....
3. that makes more sense than trying to drive it on the street ..you should really post these things in your original post instead of attacking everyone that doubts your "perfomance mods"
4. nothing wrong with that just dont get so jumpy when someone doesnt like your idea of weight saving especially when you didnt post that you are not driving this on the street..
5. nope doesnt offend me unless your one of those kids that live down the street from me and is revving the crap out of a no exhaust 305 at midnight and keeping me and my kids up ..LOL

Look General, I respect your knowledge of third gen's and I'm sick of defending my methods. I know they make a differance, small as it may be. But it all adds up. Sorry I was not more specific.

I like my "nasty" car
Only external changes I've made is the 3 inch Harwood cowl hood plus it's not the factory silver and charcoal any more. Oh and the center caps are gone but not because of weight savings

You lost a bunch of backpressure building torque, sure you got rid of any flow restriction, only you dont have a motor that will benefit from it.
