I did kooks 1 7/8 in about 3 hours, no denting at all required with stock motor mounts.

So...got it all done no problem, but when I took it into a shop to have the Magnaflow cut back and catted mids installed......380 bucks!!!! Very mad about that. But, what can I do, sit there and argue with them? Anyways, it's done now and running like crap. PCM4Less tune on the way.

PCM4Less tunes are AWESOME if you like spun rod bearings.

$380? What a rip. Looks like they had a bill to pay.

I could probably take them on and off in about an hour now--if you don't count fooling with the catted connectors.

The kooks were fairly straight-forward and easy on my car,however the catless connecting pipes + corsa was a major pain in the *** for some reason.

Yeah, I'm probably going to write an e-mail to the owner. Unless he has an expensive coke habit, it should get his attention.

You might get a free oil change out of it. I wouldn't expect much.

I did the whole exhaust in about 6 hours, headers, high flow cats, off road xpipe muffs. The big pain for me was getting em on cuz I was flying solo.
