What brand did you go with?? You doin install yourself??

if i lived closer to sac id totally go. looks fun, but thats a faaaaar drive from the south bay area!

i bought Berk Non Resonated.

I'm going to see if i can get the "Demon Bolts" off myself...if not im gonna have to take it to the shop.

it really is such a straight forward install if you can get the bolts off

I did them myself, well with a friend actually. The hardest part was actually getting to the bolts. Once we snaked a frankentool of extentions and u-joints down to the bolts they broke free fairly easy. Basically my buddy laid under the car, we fished the extension thru the engine bay and he held it on from underneath as I broke it free from up top. I did the 'ol steel wool in the o2 bungs to prevent a check engine light but still got one as soon as I started it:(

Yeah, it's pretty easy. I installed my cats last year. I PB blaster onthe bolts. The car sat for 2 hours and then they came off pretty easily. No demon bolt here! I used a breaker bar, 24" of extensions, and a u-joint. Then I had a friend hold a wrench under the car.

That's still a pretty demonic strategy to use on ONE bolt. Lol.

^it was used on all the bolts. It took me less than 2 hours to fake off the stock cats and install the Berks.

roll up the steel wool into a tighly rolled ball slightly larger than the size of the O2 bung. guarenteed no CEL!

did you remove the strut bar?

Yeah, but that takes all of 2 minutes to take off.

yea, its nothing.

is reaching the bolts from the engine bay the only way? no way to do it from under the car?

I did not have to remove it.

Yeah I didnt pack it super tight. I figured that was probably the problem.

Ordered my CNT resonated test pipes!!! Also got some quotes for blacking out my front and rear valances. Woot Woot

Should be here in a couple of weeks

Pics?

Congrats Econ
