Finally got around to installing my cat-back. NOW I have a real sports car that sounds like one. My only disappointment after buying my 'Z," was that it didn't sound much different than my Dodge Caravan..haha. Well all that has now changed. I am not a mechanic-tech, but have had classic cars before. I am fortunate to have a 4-post lift in my garage and that made the install easy. It's not really rocket science...unbolt the old one, install the new one. Went without a hitch. Well the only issue was that my sockets had trouble unbolting the existing nuts and I slightly stripped the first one. A quick trip to Lowe's and buying a 14mm 6-point socket, solved that problem. It just grabbed the nut much snugger. I just put my socket on it with a breaker bar and BINK, quickly freed up the nut. After that the install was perfect and easy. Very pleased. Note: Went with the 18-inch resonated version.
