OK, it took me almost all day to install this thing. The exhaust half was easy, but the cats were a PIA! A few pics of the project.


Here is the begining......how boring


See those cats were a lil rusty, and that was just 1 year old!


That's the piece that goes to the Y pipe.


That thing weighed a ton!!


New and old......

Stock cats weighed alot too.


After seeing this header, I want new headers now!! How in the hell can that flow right?


New cats.....after about 2 hours of work!


Replacement H-pipe instead of Y pipe..


Twin pipes going on back..


Front to back with O2 sensors unpluged


The twins......canisters that is.

Thumbs up

Nice job man. Looks good.
And headers wouldn't be a bad idea. It all depends on what the diameter is. If the hydraulic diameter anywhere in the system bottle necks its going to hurt your flow. I'm guessing that the HKS bolts right up to the stock headers, if that's the case they've gotta be the same diameter. Of course an aftermarket header may be able to smooth out the flow heading back a tad, and would probably look pretty.
But anyways, enjoy the new toy.

Nice choice of exhaust! The kit looks real clean.
Have you given any thought on purchasing headers?
If so have you looked into STRUP headers?

There lies the problem.......I want to go FI, but after seeing the stock headers, man I want to change them now.
