Lakewood Loop, Bolt in? Car is an M6. I have Pacesetter LT's, stock TQ arm, pacesetter ORY, stock aluminum driveshaft. I am only running on nittos now, but is a DS loop a good idea? Does the lakewood bolt right in? Thanks.

It is fairly easy once you get it figured out. I had to put a piece of high temp rubber on my off road y-pipe so I didn't get vibration.
The best part is the install requires no drilling.

Where did you get the high temp rubber? I have the stock exhaust still with
magna-flow cat back and I had to reverse the brackets that mount to the floor pan
to get it to fit (it sits about 1 inch back) But one side is resting on the "I" Pipe.
Its alot louder in the car and I get vibes when starting to move.
Afraid I will get knock retard???

I took a piece of high temperature air hose about 3 inches in length. I bought it at a truck supply store they sell it by the foot. It was like $2.
Then I used a large band clamp, like the one on a radiator hose but large enough to go around the I pipe, and I ran it trough a section of the 3" hose and clamped on the I pipe above the ds loop. It works great, no terrible rattle. Let me know if you need additional info.

make sure you get the high temperature/pressure hosing. I was surprised too, no noise and no melting. It was driving me crazy. I thought the ds was rubbing at first. I must have been up and down on the rino ramps 10 times.
