Belanger Header and Exhaust Install In Progress

[ScottB7133]

I have started installing Belanger Headers, High Flow Cats and Exhaust on my 2001 GTS. Here are a few interesting pictures taken as I move along. So far I have removed the entire stock exhaust, stock manifolds, and I placed the headers on just to check the fit. The Headers slipped right in and the clearance through the frame looks real good. It doesn't look like I will need to adjust the engine position. So far things are going very smoothly. More work to come this weekend. Any questions let me know.

Always thought the Belangers were almost too purdy to install.

Those have to be the best looking cats I've ever seen. Almost makes you glad they are there (not really). Too bad they have to be hidden in the side sill. Let us know how the final installation goes.

Belangers are EASY to install! No moving of the engine, they fit right in.
Just take your time lining up the gasket, and you'll fly right through it!

And wait 'til you hear how AWeSOME the sound is afterwards!

Yup, I have the full Belanger treatment, headers, CATs, catback. It sounds awesome and with 3.73:1 gears it's easier to stay out of the drone zone.

I've started Saturday with my Belangers, but I had to adjust the engine, because the driver side header was rubbing the frame.

Thanx for the post. Wow, those Belangers are NICE looking. They almost look like they are polished! Is that the standard finish?

It appears that the Flex Pipe is eliminated with this new setup. Is there any negatives effecting the whole exhaust system in doing so?

Standard finish. The shine goes away after you run the car. After 3k miles or so My flanges are still pretty shiny, but the tubes are just a nice flat grey color.
