nooooo stay away from dealerships. also i dont think many would install aftermarket parts that essentially can void the warranty and are illegal per the states law.

installation is pretty simple aside from the dreaded nissan demon bolt.

if you add full exhaust and intakes a tune is a big help. it not only maximizes the power but typically those mods together tend to lean out the fuel mixture and could possibly cause an issue.

each header to Cat is a tri flange so 3 bolts. top bolt on passenger side (for most) is the demon bolt. it's a total fuckin pain to get off.

i got an extra kick in the balls with the drivers top bolt being a pain as well.
