Default Pypes o/r x-pipe

I got it on this evening, and now my car sounds like a total different car and just on my way to work I had like 5 different people looking. Its very loud. One thing though, it was a pain in the *** to get on. We got the stock midpipe off and then we started putting the Pypes on and we ran into a few problems. The hangers got in the way, the part where one piece hooks into the other because its a 2 piece pipe, it wasnt really aligned that great. Getting the new midpipe hooked into place and getting the stock clamps from the catback to midpipe was freaking hard because the clamp was a b*tch to get back together to get bolted. All in all, it took me from 12pm to 2pm, then I quit because I didnt have all the tools. Then I started back up at about 630pm and got done at 9pm, well I got done before 9 but I drove around the neighborhood and reved it up to hear her roar.

And now that I have no cats, I forgot how the car exhaust smells because of it. I've havent had anycats on my 01 GT in almost 2 years, so that has grown on me, and its an auto, so the badass exhaust and a 5spd manual go well together.

I just put the Pypes x-pipe, mid pipes and violators on! My cats remained in tact! My mechanic just cut the pipe after the cats an put the x-pipe in. Car sounds awesome but not too loud, just the way I wanted it!!!!
