IT\'S ALIVE!!! Exhuast finally installed!

Spent all day Friday putting on Belanger Headers, 3" Roe Cats, and Mopar/Borla 3" cat back(Yes, All Day!). Now I keep asking myself why I waited this long to upgrade??!!
What a Rumble, and a Roar!!

Not too loud at all!

With a little extra cutting and welding, we got the cat back 3" all the way through. The Belangers were easy to install, except for that one **** screw on the passenger side, closest to the window! What a Pain in the A$$, as the gasket kept slipping down just enough to mess with me! But only slowed me down about 45 mins. or so!

In all took about 10 hrs! But was alot of fun and I learned alot!

My advice to anyone thinking about getting Headers/Exhuast, do it immediately! You can feel the difference, and the sound is just Awesome!

Congrats, took me quite a few evenings to fit my setup, found the slowest most frustrating bit was rerouting the O2 sensor wires. It all fitted perfectly in the end and sounds superb, well worth it.

Awesome. How much did all of the parts cost (if you don't mind me asking)?

VPRGTS,

Loosen all the clamps for the cat back (except the ones in the side sills) and push the exhaust over. Center the tips and tighten all the clamps, starting with the tips and working forward. If the clamps were tightened starting at the front, the tips could be off center.

VIPRGTS, I think the tips ended up pretty straight, but it took some effort. They definately wanted to be right of center. They were not the easiest to align, I did what Sean mentioned, it worked but took a little time and muscle.

Joel, well worth it! Yes it was!!

I didn't have to reroute the sensors in mine, so that was easy.

Garolittle, check your messages for some info.

And Sean! Your Cats fit great. And thanks for all the help! You know what my next Mod is!!
