Doesnt trust you to install a catback and midpipe? There really isnt anything to mess up. But you're looking at $50+.

I'd do it but I really dont have the time to

m0nkeh 04-10-2006 12:19 PM

its alright, ill prolly be ordering just the SLP1 2night when i get off work

any idea of how long it takes MT to deliver an exhaust? lol

but yea, thought about it and since i dont get much of a cash flow, wont be able to do the JUNKLOAD of mods i wanna do...so imma try to do a few..

slp1...slp xpipe...gears+tune...tb/plenum... and idk if there are any small (200-400) dollar mods i could add to list, and i dont plan on doing nitrous...

but yea, I just cant wait for the exhaust...lol

What if you somehow sneak over to one of your friends house one day and do it yourself. Save yourself the freakin 150 bucks itll prolly cost you to have someone do it...

m0nkeh 04-10-2006 06:37 PM

lol but wut if my dad asks to see a bill...

dannyb785 04-10-2006 06:45 PM

if your dad wants to see a bill, he better be payin for it. Here's the run down(I swear it's this easy)...

1. jack up rear and put jackstands on left and right side of the frame to hold securely

2. unbolt midpipe from catback and get hacksaw and cut off stock catback around the axle(you hafta cut it unless you can completely remove the suspension which I'd NEVER attempt)

3. maneuver the bent piping of the SLP over the axle and connect it to the rear piping part(just in front of the tips)

4. Once the flanges are tightened to hold the pipes together, bolt the catback to the midpipe and then put the tips on(SLP tips are tightened with flanges)

If you take your time, you can be done in an hour with the catback. The xpipe install is a little more of a pain because you need a long socket wrench to fit where it connects to the header area. And you'd also need to connect the 02 sensors which is a PITA. I did it w/ a friend but it sucked. Catback is cake though.

no matter how you do it when doing a mid pipe the 02's will always be a PITA Hole....

m0nkeh 04-10-2006 08:33 PM

yeah you can do this stuff not hard at all, just amke sure if you decide to do it research it so you know exaclty what you are doing it makes things a lot easier!
