As long as no welding is required to mate the system to your catback, i'm game. After next week i'll have a slot open. PM me when you want it done. Thanks

It is different when it is your friends compared to some yahoo you dont know. There is no way I would touch it for $120. All it takes is something to go wrong like a stripped bolt turning into drilling-tapping/helicore- or something small like that to go wrong then if there is any other issue you could end up with someone on the forum trashing your name over a $120 install.......not worth it to me

Well apparently this dude doesn't want my offer. He signed in today @ around 2pm, and I'm sure he read the thread.

Oh well, his loss.
