- This has to be one of silliest things we've done on the channel haha.
Lachlan and I decided to drill some holes right before the muffler
in his e90 BMW 330i. It worked very well, surprisingly...

For people thinking this affects the environment greater, it doesn't. He drilled after the catalytic converter, and before the muffler. The muffler only "muffles" the sound. Basically the exhaust is the exact same emissions level as before just louder. The only danger is potentially rust and exhaust fumes in the car.
So it wont leak right
@@juancena7636 not unless you have an issue with your cats themselves, such this won’t cause.
No exhaust fumes in the car ;)
He's polluting the environment inside his vehicle because now the exhaust doesn't go all the way to the tailpipe it flows up into the trunk
Greta was here in the comments?? Omgosh I want her autograph! 😱😮... 🌈🦄🖕
ok can we all agree we have thought of this because we dont want to spend money
Yes
and ppl will still bash on you even though they prolly thought about it themselves 🤦🏼♂️

I mean at the end of the day what’s the difference between this and straight through mufflers🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️ pitch and tone that’s it…I just don’t know why everyone goes with a small bit…take a 3 inch hole saw right to the bottom of that big ass muffler lol
Exactly, in my case I dont want to much welding on the pipe aldo. Drill some holes and cover them with a pipe clamp when You want to goback.
For anyone wondering, I did this to my 1994 MJ triton since you can’t get decent aftermarket mufflers that will fit. Putting 5 3/8 inch holes, and it is LOUD. it’s not extremely obnoxious, but you’ll hear it a block away no issues, and it created a lot of back fire when you’re at higher speeds and revs, but I love it, just got to really crank the music to hear it lol.
I came for a similar comment for my 96 MJ but I didn't think I'd be so spoiled haha👌
Also, where did you drill? Asking for a mate
I was too impatient for your reply for my fully sick new mod so I just sent the cunt 5 times with a 5mm bit just before the muffler😅👌
If anyone else is considering doing it, I suggest to drill one hole at a time and go for a drive until you get the best flavour. I didn't care and just sent it as my exhaust is going to get replaced soon anyway😂
@YoaminYashed yeah bro I'm going to give it a go because I am also replacing mine soon so why not
Got the same plan here. I dont need it too loud, dont wanna waste money and time for an electric valve also. Just drill some holes until the volume is right and can go back to original with just a pipe clamp.
Nothing JB weld can’t fix
Got bored, was meant to wash the car and ended up drilling holes 😂
Literally just did that😭
This will be me...on this summer
@@beetleulbrich4778 fr same I hope my mechanic won’t be mad 😭
Literally same😭😭😭😭
all i got was a loud hissing noise deafening when accelerating
3:18 There are times I'm on a job that requires eye protection and I think it's bullshit, but when people do things like this without any eye protection my gut sinks.
He did wear eye protection
@@christianagustin396 He also did 'not'. Must have gotten something in his eye, then put those on
@@MrMotoMike oh that’s true
Really should of explained to the less Informed that the drilling needs to be made after the catalytic convertor, just before the muffler and nowhere around or before the oxygen sensor. And then explained why. You can't smell those gases before they hit the convertor and can be potentially life threatening or cause serious illness if not drilled correctly.
Hey Chris, do you reckon an old 1993 hilux would have these sensors? If not, should I be doing this for my own good. Also side note will this damage the underside of my truck as the exhaust may be coming out prematurely through those holes and hitting the underside. Thanks
@@danielseeto9622 Honestly buddy I'm not sure of the sensor placement on a 93 hilux. Should be able to locate on google, however. As long as you have holes drilled facing the ground you should be fine and avoid underside damage. Maybe some long term rust damage if anything, which is not ideal and keep in mind doing so will most likely fail an inspection. As for doing this for your own good, its completely up to you. Reasonably safe if done right. Just make sure you check for the sensor first, drilling before it or around it will have serious repercussions regarding your MAF. MAF readings that get sent to the ECU will be completely incorrect. The ECU will compensate the increased amount of air with extra fuel and then your in trouble. As for if you should be doing this for your own good... That's purely for you to decide based on the pro's and con's. IMO - con's outweigh the pro's.
@@chrisking4411 thanks for going into more detail, I appreciate that
it’s really not that difficult to just drill in between the muffler and the cat lol … there’s also a resonator in between the cat is like at the top of your exhaust
This is not dumb, it works!! After the Borla exhaust I bought for my 2005 mustang GT was too quiet, I did this mod exactly and it sounded amazing I got compliments on it all the time! Then, I also did it to my next vehicle, a j k Wrangler... And while it wasn't as good as the mustang, it still sounded very good and extremely similar to the aftermarket exhausts I heard for the Wrangler. Now, I recently did it 2 mi 2015 Mazda CX-5, and again the results have been excellent. If I had the bread to buy inexpensive cat back I would certainly do so, but on a tight budget this works really well and does not affect power or fuel efficiency, at least not that I have noticed in my pretty extensive research lol. I started off with drilling one small hole literally just before the muffler flange, then I drilled that one out larger, to about 1/8 inch I think. The mustang was dual exhaust, so I did this on both sidesmustang was dual exhaust, so I did this on bowl sides, and ended up with about 5 holes on each side LOL. For the Jeep and Mazda, I only drilled out a couple holes. If you do this be aware, you can always make it louder, but each hole increases the sound, and you can't undrill lol (although u could plug it). People can say what they want, but everyone loved the sound of the Mustang, especially after I added intake and a tuner. Once I added those mods, the thing ripped big time! It was basically a very loud version of the Borla. On the other two cars, just having couple smaller holes did the job, making them sound aggressive, but on the milder side. Right now my CX-5 is not as loud as say the loudest corksport available for the CX5.
How many years have you been using this upgrade? Has it not damaged anything? The holes kinda change the way the exhausts rotate inside the exhaust pipe. Has the car started to backfire? I need to know this :P
@@patrikrusinko my bmw has 2 pipes and each one has 8holes and theres no popping. Just gave my car a nice exhaust it's nothing that will get u pulled over cuz it's not as loud a muffler delete
VERY HELPFUL 💯
What are the bowls on the mustang I wanna do mine
Why r people saying its an exhaust leak or blown exhaust? Im somewhat concerned if i should do this to my catbacks on my stang or not. I really want to make it louder cause right now its just medium loud. Doing this would be nice to cause its free and i dont need to spend money. How would thjs cause exhaust leakage??? Like how is this in any way different then a muffler delete??? of course there would be leakage here and there but its not excessive. Plus u can drill more and larger holes with larger sizes and its practically the exact same and your muffler and tips are just there for aesthetics
Hey I think this is worth a shot I'm going to straight pipe it anyways and if I don't like it I can always just feel it back up
Here at the genius convention we use mini charcoal BBQs as mufflers and if you want louder exhaust just open the vents 🧠
Well done guys. Well Done 👍
it depends on how big the muffler is … for example on my Nissan I drilled like 18 holes but the muffler is huge and goes horizontally (unlike most) so it’s loud but it just sounds weird and not good
This was probably the. best yt tutorial ever we have the same car and everything ty!!!! and nice car.
Can you tell me if this will damage underneath the car at all thinking of giving it a go
I did this on my car untill my muffler delete kit come in, sounds good but there is a slight fluttering noise. Would drilling a few more hole resolve this so there is more space fro the exaust gasses to escape? I only drilled 4 holes on each pipe, mine is duel exaust, so 8 holes total about 3/8 in diameter
TALK ENGLISH
They say drill at least 6 holes
Grammer police here but he ain't talking jackass. Gtfo
“we’re gonna be working on Lachlan’s beautiful bmw 330i, doesn’t have a single problem” *coughs* 😭😭
Maybe use a bigger drill bit for better results, your BMW now sounds like a modified vacuum cleaner lol
True 🤣
Haha guy in the back eating cereal
pro tip. take the exhaust pipe off and put few holes from the upper side on it. that way when you go to yearly check they wont be able to see it but you will have it permanently louder
Idk if your joking but im not experienced in cars and i know thats a bad idea cause drilling the bottom lets precipitation out instead of letting it sit in there
@@sheldonwoodhouse4222 if the precipitation needed to go out then the car manufacturerer would of done that
@@isatntt exactly, the heat in the pipes evaporates all that either way
Yearly check? What kind of communist shit is that
Wut is a yearly check , mate?
Any droning when cruising?
Isn't that a valvetronic exhaust on beers pretty sure the flap in the muffler opens and closes for sound and sports flow when you floor it?? 🤔
I love them hot metal shards on my face when I'm drilling up like that
Did this to my stock 2015 5.0 f150 right before muffler with 3/8 bit. Did about 4 holes. Sounds sick af
Im gonna do it to my f150 too
@@winxter5018 do it, you'll love it. Just make sure to do it before the exaughst manifold, after the resonator
@@trexnoises4071 alright
So question! My altima has duel pipes. Would holes be drilled where the pipe is straight and splitting into dual pipes ( straight pipe, splits to duel pipes, muffler then the exhaust tips)?
OR on both pipes of the dual on driver and passenger side pipes right before each pipes muffler?
Spiral0ut I would recommend right before each pipes muffler, gives the exhaust more length and giving it a better sound i find
@@jeremypeeters5322 thanks Jeremy appreciate it brother
I did this on my 1.8t jetta gli and it was amazing
How’s it working a month later? Thinking of doing this to my Jetta
Sam Norwood great just a check engine light that comes on every so often because I bypassed the catalytic converters
Same story as sam hows it doing after 10 months
@@joecapuano7402 if its check engine light isnt on its a fake VolksWagen
Hows the exhaust holding up? No rust or problems that it caused? About to do this on my 528i , i have the money to buy one but i just want it little louder its not ferrari so not looking for performance. I will try today and up date see what happened !
So what happened
@@Batatus12 one year later... the guy died while drilling the holes🤣🤣💀
@@Shotbymass rest in peace Alex G
Rest well bro
Rest well brother 🙏🙏
Did it take a little bit to drill through it ?
Rust works just as well if you have an older vehicle.
VERY True, LOL!!
Natural exhaust mod
Third GEN Dodge Ram 1500 they like to return to the earth from once they came
[SOUNDS, GREAT]👍
Is it safe to do on f10 550i ?
I wish people would take my sarcasm that well 🤣
Even better when rust does it for you
Dude that sounds like an M3 😂
I have 2 audi the v8 and the 2.0lt with hole and it doesnt work on the 2.0l turbo. On the turbo car im curious to know if i lost power...bit the sound didnt change at alll.
On the v8 the sound was already great and drilled one small hole in each pipe and i dis saw à 5 to 10% increase...not enough haha but i only have one point left on m'y licence for 2 year so im looking for à balance and it work...
Or you can find where the exhaust is connected to the catalytic converter tube, then put a long enough bolt and nut in the middle leaving a wide gap between both joints and that is reversable, rather than filling the holes of ever needed
@TRY NOT TO LAUGH ahh I see!
@TRY NOT TO LAUGH 👌 which ever is reversible and equates to having fun and getting away with it lol 😆
Yeah but then you’ll have exhaust fumes leaking into your car lol.
@@TakeThis_L some of us already have exhaust fumes running through their cars😂
That’s terrible and releases toxic fumes man hell no
Haha I do this to my paddock bashers :)
Yes.
Why it starts like this?
So @RexH what was that thing you guys mentioned about installing something to turn it off and on called?
Cutouts
@@gavinlee9478 he’s going to put a side valve so if he opens the valve all the sound will leak out that hole instead of tunneling through the muffler and if you grow out of having an annoying sounding car you close the valve and no sweat now u have a muffler
@@azion6518 did you mean to reply to me, I know what they are and what they do but thank you for explaining
It basically connects right before the exhaust and has a Bluetooth fob that opens and closes an extra hole its essentially the same thing but it acts as a full muffler delete than when you close the hole it pushes all the airflow through the muffler
can I do it on my impreza not writing ? will it work ?
Is that a Walmart drill?
pretty much did the same shit, I cut it halfway with a sawzall and then stopped cuz I hadda do some shit and then decided to strt the car and the shit sounded actually good. so i left it Lol
Does it still sound good and are there fumes in the car?
Would doing this to a polo make it fail the NCT in Ireland?
Nice!!
I want to do that to my golf 4 is there any chance that I would get smoke or smells inside my car like back seats or front?
Just do it after the catalytic converter then no smells
For a size 3/8 do you recommend 4, 5 or 6 holes
I did 5 holes and that was more than loud enough for my pick up, 3 or 4 would’ve probably been better in my case if you’re not wanting to be completely obnoxious. Not sure how drastically it’ll change with different cars and pipe sizes.
Should I try it on my 01 Camry
Any engine lights or codes thrown?
Nope not for resonator or muffler thats with catalytic converters removed
Wow, an exhaust leak is now a mod. Lol
What size hole did you make?
andy moore 6.5 mm
I've seen others use 3/8s. Bigger holes means less drilling
Drilled holes in my 328i. Same spot. , made 7 holes , sounds pretty good , even though im getting a muffler delete
Sgt. Tyson I’m thinking of doing this. Is there any exaust fumes or droning from this
hey Sgt. did you notice any drone while doing long trips?
This it just a blown exhaust!!
Got a 328 myself and did this, is there any chance of getting carbon poising with this?
Anything happend ?
Now I want to just unbolt one of my mufflers, for science you know.
Unbolt.. more like angle grinder cutting it you mean
How come mine started leaking from the holes ?😭
Im doing a really wreird way to get more sound i removed the connwction to the black muffler and putting a pipe.there with holes
will this pass smog test in cali? i wanna do this to my 328i
Yes it will pass the smog but not the inspection it’s not worth doing it
@@saidlozza2792 They dont even jack up the car anymore for inspection. They'd never see it.
@@sirbader1 Mine went on lift.
So one that can go through wood, Metal or PVC doesn't work? Will on e that can go through Steel beams work?
Any drill bit will work just fine
@@coleosmond4185 Not just any drill bit will work I have one meant for wood and PVC and metal and the drill was zig zag all over the place you can see that it wasn't until I bought a bit with a steel beam picture that it stayed out took for ever but went through.
Would that work on a AU
Thank you
so i gotta 1.8 sentra, trying to see what to do with my exhaust and i’m trying to keep a ricey theme lol. think this might be it
Hahaha I was bored and just did this on my 325i.. 😂 nice
hahahahahahah how does it sound??
Rex H.. Nice low rumble at idle.. Nothing ground shaking.. But noticeably better than before the holes.. 😂 😂 I dig it..
Four Nine bloodline I'm gonna do it my 325i to lol that's why I'm here
Do you find it drones?
Is this legit , I’m literally thinking of doing it rn on my Ford Focus , I just don’t want anything Messi g up
Can I do this to my 2016 Mustang Eco boost
Would it pass inspection? And if not is there any other way to make it loud?
No it wouldn’t In some states and in some it would so it’s basically an exhaust leak so you just got to check for your state I had the same problem and it didn’t pass inspection so I had to replace the pipe in that spot but I just ended up getting a new muffler so ya I live in Texas so no it doesn’t pass here sadly but this is a super cool little project
Ryan Malone thanks man for letting me know
@@RegiosRed107 just put bolt screws the day for the inspection bro to pass
I usually muffler delete my card ,sounds way better ,but drilling holes works too
could be illegal.
your “card” ???
Cant do this in canada cause you can see exhaust fumes coming out from underneath the car in the cold winter :/
Icarus that’s why you do it on your butter fly valve side. So that way when your car is at idle it won’t do it or no back pressure will flow all the time.
Try drilling holes before the cat and see if you can't add a pressure relief valve tube setup safely 😂
I made it on 2.0 and sounds good too lol
You got to drill some holes in the Cylinder. One hole per Cylinder gains +30hp. The more holes the more oxy to bang the more power. 20-25 holes per Cylinder is a good ratio.
Can I do this on my Acura TL stock exhaust ?
No you might break the muffler bearings you have to be very careful
Did u do it? I have one too
May as well, I’m getting my car straight piped after corona 🤷🏼♂️
Corona gonna be 6 more months or so just do it now
There is no, after corona. The new world order is here
Bro me too, just gonna try this for the meantime. No one can see the underbelly anyway. And I get the sound I want until I change the full exhaust system in a few months
When is after?
Corona isn’t going to just up and leave
Did you get a check engine light after doing this mod?
Michael Robillard nah i did it on mine and no engine light comes on
Cel if it's before any sensors usually
It’s before the sensor, you’ll be fine.
The way that thing started, I’m guessing he already had a cel
gdamn fresh baby face rexy
Any affects for fuel economy? Because I want to drill in mine too.
Nope
Just buy one
An exhaust mod wild only change the fuel economy if there is different amounts back pressure being pushed into the exhaust, holes in an exhaust will hardly change it at all
Yo how much louder does this sound compare to his muffler he had on his lancer?
good question! the bmw is quite a bit louder than the muffler on his lancer when accelerating. however the lancer at idle was much louder.
Rex H alright thanks, I have the same muffler he had on his lancer but I'm not really that happy with it, looking at other options to make my car a bit louder. Keep up the good videos, your channels unique :)
i reckon best option for lancer is just full muffler delete! thanks so much man !! :)
Rex H okay, shame it's illegal though. What about a cannon?
yeah probably will do down the line but for now hopefully we dont get caught
You can loosen the bolts and put in some washers but in my case it came out to 10 miles per gallon😂😂😂
So I just bondo/ jb weld the holes for inspections?! I’m so tempted
Just staple it with exhaust tape
I just did that in my Toyota corolla AE90
You should have just took your catalytic converters off and put it straight pipe
Will it still pass emissions?
Did sounds good!
It would its the same as a muffler delete only thing that it does is stop the flow from hitting the muffler which is to literally muffle the sound
It will pass emissions
Yup then u can just use an exhaust clamp if u don’t like
Does anyone know if you can do this in Texas and pass the state inspection?
Was wondering the same thing lmao I’m in Connecticut I think no one would but I’ve never been yet I am soon…
@@jimmystepps2202 did u pass
@@InstinctsFN bro fuck the holes i mean it’s a change but i deleted my res and my mufflers this would change the emissions on the car the only one that really will is your cat converter
@@InstinctsFN i passed with a muffler and res delete so might as well delete then hole
Of course it will pass
The fluke may be to add extra back pressure for more torque.
Backpressure doesn't increase torque
It closes at idle to quite the exhaust
you actually wanna get rid of the muffler to get more hp, back pressure is only needed on a 2takt engine
It doesn’t really cause more back pressure your hp really stays almost the same if imma be honest
Oooorrrrrrr just do what I did just get a whole new exhaust system with a Spec D muffler and remove the silencer lol it'll sound better and guarantee my car is louder than what you guys did by drilling holes
To expensive, I'll get my drill
Not everyone has the money to do that
I once did this... my car sounded like a semi-truck on low revs but good on high revs, also got some free burble.
Did it on my Silverado it works😂
My parents are gonna kill me😂
How’s it sound
If you're driving in the rain and water gets in there , it will cause major rust
This can also increase hp and help your car breathe a bit better. As long as your Cats good this won’t cause problems.
how to not pass inspection lmao
It will pass
Motor sounds rough at start dude.. might wanna check on that
yeah just replaced the starter a few days ago :) Video will be out in a few days
Wont get water in the hole?
If the car is running the water wont get into it because the compressed air in the exhaust gonna repel the water
im gonna do this to my ford Flex! i had a minivan before i wish I'd tried it then
Haha how did it turn out? My mom owns a Ford Flex I might do it? Good Idea😂??
@@alanmichael7387 I did a little bit but I haven’t finished yet! It sounds good so far but I need to be cautious as to not drill to many so exhaust fumes leak into the cabin
