well, after a month or 2, of it sitting in my trunk...its finally in the damn car....well, i was calling around meineke, midas, and other places, and they all said no cuz of the pre-cats...gay....anyways, so i call some mom and pop shops, and one guy says he'll do it...so i get there, and the guy is like lemme see the pipe....so i whip it out, and he's like oh its a down pipe ....there was a cop standnig behind him, so he was like i cant do that for you, its illegal....so im like wtf, so im walking toward my car, and he's like, here go to my brothers shop, he'll do it for you...im like w00t....so i get there, and a BAD misap happens when im putting my car into the garage...the careless man that i am, cut it too close to the wall...

*SCRAPE*....chunks came off my car...im gonna need to get that filled up ...gah, anyways.

i was mad about that still, and the guy installs it for me....took about an hourish....well, he starts her up, sounds freakin awesome....so then, i drive her around, and it is so god damn quick, but it was raining, so i could barely get traction ...when i did get traction, it raped....well it sounded great, but then i had this huge clunking coming from underneath, im like wtf...so im like, oh ya the heatshield...so i take it back, he hammers it out of the way, and im on my way again, and its all good....so $60, a scraped to **** right rear fender flare, and an hour later, dat y pipe is finally on....

if it wasnt for the stupid scrape, id be 10x happier

 

awww that sucks! But at least the pipe is in!!!

 

I'm getting my y-pipe installed pretty soon. Do they all need to have the heatshield hammered away. So I can tell them to do that.

 

As I type this, my car is sitting on ramps in a friend's garage, as we are in the process of putting my Y pipe in....

unfortunate thing is we started last night and ran into some hefty problems

But hopefully today will be another story...we'll see after I get outta work
