Tired of paying muffler shops

[DSG03Snake]

Well, im thinking of getting rid of this MRT-H Pipe since im still sure I have a leak, can hear a slight wisp/tick when driving next to a wall and I don't recall hearing it before, and I do not believe it is valvetrain/injector noise.

Anyhoo, I'm tired of forking all this cash over to exhaust shops to mess around with my exhaust. What do you guys to suspend the car, do you use jacks, or ramps or what?

What products do you use? Thanks!

I use jack stands. If only working on back, i would jack it up and put one under each rear subframe where it is connected to the unibody (where a sub connector would weld). That would be plenty of support to work on your exhaust.

Did you have all slip flanges welded up after lining everything up? That would reduce possible leak points to only the stock flange locations.

The new mrt h pipe doesn't leak. Are you using an old style?

I just changed out my pipe yesterday. I used rhino ramps with 2x12's under them......so it looked like this
