Its all bolt on and rather straight forward. Should be rather easy. Hope you have the cats still on because it will be crazy loud and many that have tried it went with the Hi-flo cats and seemed to help. I think any H-pipe is best for this setup as well.....JMO J

Mine just got to the shop the other day, and will be being installed shortly.. I notice you have a 'vert like me.. Did you order the correct kit? Cervini's just started listing the convertible kit on their site (8016) a few weeks ago, up until then you had to ask them when you ordered.. It's like $250 more than the coupe kit. There are braces that need to be replaced underneath that aren't on a coupe, and if you don't replace them, the exhaust can't get past them to make it out the side...

Your going to love it - it's the best sounding exhaust I've heard so far (IMO). Depends on what sound you want, but it sounds deep! Install is pretty straight forward, all bolt up , but don't know if there's muchdifference with the vert, but Cervini seemed to do an amazing job on the entire kit, so I'm sure they did it right. Becareful on the speedbumps though, the tips (at the point they connect to the piping) hang pretty low (2-1/2 inches). Enjoy !!!

dennys - are you lowered at all, or are you stock ride height? If you are lowered, how much, and which springs?

Couple of warnings, DO NOT buy a Catless H pipe, as it is truly just too loud. Second, don't ever lower your car because you will start to rip your exhaust off your car each bump you go over (non-lowered w/ 20's and I scrape sometimes). Lastly, be prepared for one of the coolest appearance/performance modifications I think there is!

i can't wait for the cervinis kit, but at the same time, i think i can wait for the hassle of the low clearance even with stock ride height. i'm nervous. i have to over 3 speed bumps just to leave my house or come back home. 6 speed bumps at school, 3 speed bumps at work. my god this is going to SUCK.
