H3 exhaust

Hey i was just wondering if anyone put an exhaust on their h3 yet. If so which one, how does it sound, n do u have any sound clips. I tried searchin around different companies but the only one that i heard was the magnaflow which didnt sound too impressive.

i've got a magnaflow on the bus, and it's pretty quiet compared to the flowmaster i had on my 4runner. i liked the sound of the 6 cylinder with the flowmaster, although i'd prefer something like the thunderheaders we have on the harleys for the bus. i'd stay away from magnaflow if i had to do it over again. i should be able to crush the muffler some time soon, so i'll go with flowmaster next time.

i got the SMA it looks good and sounds nice and mellow

The SMA one is great!! I have it on mine! I found it on http://www.stallioncustoms.com

Oh and everything SMA makes is a GM Licensed product. It's pretty quality stuff, I trust it more than the Flowmaster I have on my Camaro SS.

i take it you have a 2002 Camaro? my buddy has a 2002 SS Camaro SLP edition. he has bolt ons and a cam. do you race it? fast cars!

I just put on myself a Gibson Cat-back Split tail exhaust P/N #312700..Salvaged the orignal Mufflers and pipes for return to original (just in case I need to)..The sound is awesome and mellow..Hard to believe it's a 5 cylinder.

Do you guys think there is any performance gain with a full cat back or will a free flow muffler do the trick?

Take a look undereneath...A Cat-Back uses only One muffler and is generally tuned for the type of engine..The stock system has two restrictive sound mufflers..There's your gain.

Good point. Anyone tried the Corsa system?

denis how much and where did you get the gibson exhaust? I've used gibson products in the past and had no real complaints

Bump,

Yeah Dennis, can you post the link to where you found the best price on the Gibson you have? I searched but didn't find it.

THANKS!!

I can't understand why none of the web sites have it right now..But I called the Gibson dealer here in OKC and he has a system down in their Dallas wearhouse in stock..His prices are cheaper than the webs site's prices too..This guy in OKC here is where I bought mine from.. I just called them and they said if you call them, they can bill to your credit card and send to the credit card's address and you'll have it in a week..

WOW! Looks good man!

This is the first H3 I've seen without a trailer hitch...I think it makes the butt look clean.

Finished installing the Gibson Cat-back Split tail exhaust P/N #312700 from 4wheel Parts of Oklahoma..(405) 946-3509 on the WIFE'S H3.....SWEET!!!!!!!
EASY install (2 of my students and me spent about 1 1/2 hour--removing the old system in ONE PIECE and installing the new system)----only thing I did was spray the pipes and muffler with some 2000 degree silver paint, not a bright silver (same paint use on my vette's exhaust wrap from Eastwood Co.)
Cost was $383.00(at the 1st of this year it was $333.00 but that's LIFE) --PLUS sales tax and shipping. Shipping was SUPER QUICK.
If you call 4wheel Parts of Oklahoma ASK for Mark---GREAT Guy to deal with. TELL him you are a member of Hummer Forum and he will "help-out on the Shipping".
THE SOUND!!!!! My wife said "If it loud on the inside....you will be TAKING it OFF". After driving for a week and taking a 400 mile get-a-way trip. SHE LOVE the SOUND!!!!! and the S.S pipes under the rear bumper.
Dennis THANKS for the ADVICE on this system!!!! YOU were right on target-----GREAT EXHAUST SYSTEM!!!!

Whew!..Glad to hear the wife gave her approval...I wouldn't want that rath hanging over my head...

Anyway, it does make the H3 look the part now and sound the part too..

Ok, I just picked up my H3 last night and decided rather quickly that it need an exhaust. So now the search begins for what I want. I just got out of an 04 Avalanche with a Ravin 77 cat-back that I like a lot.

Any recommendations on what I should look at for the H3? The Gibson looks very promising. Does anyone have experience with anything else?

Thanks for the help.

Sorry I took so long to reply Dilo. Yeah I race it sometimes. Though it's a vert and a auto, so it weighs a bit more than a hard top Camaro and I can't really launch the car like I could with a stick. We just got a 04 Mistubishi Evolution. I'm turning that into my weekend warrior.

HuMDaWG,
I went to a local muffler shop and had a FlowMaster installed on the rear. The tail pipe was cut at an angle and it looks good. The sound is mellow, sort of like the mad hornet sound from the Honda. As for the rest, noticed pickup in acceleration, tach is right at 2 when I am at 60MPH. Got a slight MPG gain as well. Not sure just how much of one yet.

I had the CORSA CAT-BACK installed today. I am pleased with the sound.

Good deal Tim..Makes the car don't it?

Got some pictures?

Um Dennis. It looks like you even polished the underneath. LOL!! Me too. I spend extra time washing and drying the wheel wells. My rig will never see mud. LOL!!!

Does anybody notice a power increase with the Gibson exhaust?
