so yesterday I was able to put some more time in and install the pipes. I was doing it at home but quickly realized I was going to need some help so I slapped the rear plate on and drove mad max style to my friend's shop



the 100 cell cats are huge so the access to the bolts was limited and it was a royal PITA to take them off, had to take off the ICs

but finally installed them


I drove back home 20 miles and this thing is LOUD!!! my phone died so I could not get video but I will today once I install the bumper etc.

hahah that has to be crazy loud!

But in my opinion you have to have Xpipe on a turbo to make them sound good,too much tractor sound with just a straight pipe.

it sounds a bit like a diesel f250 with big exhaust lol

I might go with Markski's exhaust later on but for now I will enjoy being annoying hahaha.. I can't wait to bring it to my office and set off all the alarms lol..

ok so if you are planning on doing this, get ready for your ears to bleed haha

I took the car out for a drive and after 20 minutes my brain was shacking, my jaw hurt and my ears were about to pop lol

I am running GT28s and they sound awesome, I am giving it 2 weeks to see if the sound grows on me.. I already had my first encounter with the cops and they gave me a warning but pulled me over mostly for no front plate

a little preview, I finished putting everything back together late and could not get any of my friends to come out with me and my damn go pro was out of battery
