Talking Christmas in April!

Today I was the lucky recipient of a set of JetHot LT's and ORY, jet hot coated inside and out and are beautiful pieces, and a nice little hooker catback to go with them, saturday just cant get here fast enough (or friday night if i can get the time), just thought i would share it with ya cause I am like a kid on christmas eve night anxiously waiting, would post pics but the wife broke the damn camera this weekend, oh well!

4 1/2 hours, removal of entire stock system, install of headers and catback, i dont think that was too bad for doing it on the ground, had to grind the block tab a little, but other than that it went together like a glove, quality pieces, very happy customer of jethot and hooker
