Default Pypes Dual Exhaust Install

I am starting a Pypes install and I thought I would throw out the thread to see if there are any recommendations.

This is an Oct 06 bought 07 so there shouldn't be any issue with the mid-year problem I've heard about.

Thanks for any info.

Once you get it all fitted up....have a shop weld it. Crappy clamps

I have had no problem with mine, fit like a glove and the clamps worked fine, although I have heard others having problems with the clamps, I must have lucked out.

my install was a disaster, +1 on the welding, your gonna need hangers either way for the drivers side, and just make sure you measure twice and cut once on the rear valence, check check and triple check for alignment and any extra rattles or leaks you might have before calling it a job, Good luck

Good luck with the install. I installed mine myself and it was very easy and straight forward. I didn't run into any problems. One thing I will suggest though...When installing the drivers side hangers, use the old bolts that came off of the passenger side of the car. The reason I suggest this is because the hangermounting holes in the drivers side are not threaded from the factory. The stock bolts from the passenger side are self tapping and will thread into the untapped holes without any problems. You can use the new bolts in the passenger side mounting points which are already threaded. I have almost 5,000 miles on my kit now and I have been very satisfied with my Pypes kit.
