It took all day but I was able to get the Exhaust, shifter and DS done.

The Alu DS from Inland was a perfect fit and the Steeta shifter makes a big improvement over the factory. Both were easy and straight forward to install.

The headers was a different story. I have never cussed so much in my life so we'll just leave it at that. If you plan on installing your own, I wish you all the luck in the world. I will pay some one next time.

Here is a quick Vid, Let me know what you think.

Thats awesome! Sounds like a nascar at WOT


Sn197 GT Axleback/Catback systems and the GT500 systems are the exact same thing right? Because my uncle wants to order a set of Stingers for his GT500 and I wasn't exactly sure.

Cant watch the vid at work, but Ive got the Kooks too with the catted X going on next week. Im running the Corsa's. Stage 3 should be here this week! What was the difficult part of the header install? Did you reuse the stock gaskets? They're expensive buggers.

Did you get the 3" cat back pipes with the magna flow? Just Installed the 3" cat back magna flow with the magna pack's on ours and it is too quite. Really wasnt going to do any other exhaust work but now I am going to at least do an x-pipe and probally a set of headers.

I reused the gaskets, they were perfect.

They were hard because there is not much room. The drivers side was the worst, it's a very tight fit. My hands are all cut up!!!:D
