there we go. what a phuckin' job this was! everything lined up just fine, but gettin' the original manifold/down pipe off was a pain in the ass. if you look close, you can see that i broke off my dipstick handle too. haha. good times....

big difference though! i love it.

the install took 3 days, after buying a grinder... impact wrench (good luck without it).... and just molesting the downpipe. i CAN NOT BELIEVE how hard it was to get the bolts off that connect the 2nd cat to the down pipe. i think you're better off buying quality headers too - because my shish lined up PERFECT. no grinding or cutting underneath at all.

the resonator will come off by the end of next week, as well as the high-flow and muffler installed.

Mad-Machine - sounds awesome! i can't believe what a difference it makes in shifting especially, and all around accelleration too.

2Bits - yeah, the AEM is comin' real soon, i know... one thing at a time though. 8^)

you've got an auto... right? good amount of power increase? get an intake and it will improve so much more.

dweet, how long did it take you to install yours? I remember seeing the step-by-step on your cardomain page
