Default Glasspack Tips Tricks NEED Help

Just wondering if anyone nows any tips or tricks on how to blow out the fiberglass inside of the glasspack. I've heard one about water but i dont know the ins and outs of the trick. Also, i already have the glasspacks on my truck and dont really want to take them back off.. Thanks

Cut it in half, gut it, then weld it up.

The water trick works....do out and drive it around getting the GP's nice n hot...put the end of the hose in the tailpipe(s)...fill it up, let it soak, then start it up and drive the hell out of it again.

another trick that i have learned is go for a drive and get them hot while you're driving drop down a few gears and it will build alot of back pressure and backfire this will help to blow them out
