| Well it took about 10 hours and a few issues but ...wow...was it worth it, she is a beast, sounds like old school muscle. Removing the stock heat shields and manifolds was no problem at all. The first issue I ran into was that the header bolt holes didnt line up properly so I had to slightly hog out the holes. Next issue was the top center 2 bolts on the left side header,PITA!! no way to really get on them so i was forced to wrench them in 1/8th of a turn at a time, and let me tell you with lock tight on them, not an easy process. I am so glad I did not attempt this on the ground and its not something I'm likely to ever attempt again..Let me tell you with the high flow cats and 3in cat back its a very raw sounding exhaust and when you get in it, sounds like a bracket car, almost too much. Taking her to the track on wednesday and we'll see what kind of gains I picked up. Still waiting on my CMR tune from HHP.
I'll try to post up a video in the next day or so to give everybody an idea of what I'm talking about | |

| Headers are a project that is so frustrating yet so satisfying. Wear your skinned knuckles with pride. Good luck at the track. | |
