Talking Catback Installed (now with vid!)

Got my Flowmaster American Thunder catback today! bought it from buyflowmaster.com and they're pretty good i reccomend them.

Me, my dad and yellow99 put it on in about 2 hours. Only hard part was the hangers but a little WD40 took care of that.

It sounds soo much better than my SLP's. i kinda liked my slp's though but they were just too loud lol. I'll make a sound clip sometime or another.

Nest on the list is Sportlines and cc plates!

Does too loud really exist?

+1 on those hangers.....i've re-aligned the right side of my MAC cat-backs three times now to get rid of a vibration caused by the hassle of those hangers. Takes a huge amount of strength to get those on right. I used a large socket + ratchet to push towards the outside of the car while pushing with my other arm in the opposite direction.
