Headers/Dowpipe/Midpipe install party
I pm'ed you the details.
Also, I have a stock EX midpipe, you could use it for temporary if you get the RT cat before you buy a mipipe. Its stock size, so you wouldn't want to keep it on.

LilJoe: I took the magnaflow to the midas on baseline near your place...they did a real sweet job. I'd suggest going to them for anything if you haven't already, and if you need work done that players mom can't handle.

did a late night install (12 - 4am) tonight. friggin awesome. I'm still running with the stock Si/EX midpipe until I go to midas in the morning to get my magnaflow welded.
the sound is pretty good, but the throttle response is insane. its really impressive.
I'll take some pics tomorrow and post them up.
also a bit of a walkthrough on the install.

Can't wait to see the setup. Good luck at Midas.
okay. to make a long story short, dont go the the midas on baseline near clyde. They re-nagged on the cash offer they made me on tuesday. Also, NEVER go to speedy.
I wound up going to the midas in bells corners, excelent job, and a real good price. Ask for John.
So don't have pics or anything yet, but i'm really happy with the whole thing. I noticed a major difference.
Also, I put my rear sway bar (thanks danny) on today. I'm taking on ramps with a big grin now.

Mike I talked about both shops with you last night. At first the one on baseline was amazing. Then we realized they sucked and I remembered what you said about the one in bells corners. The guy who welded the exhaust was amazing. the whole job took 35min. thats with helping out another guy and talking to us. i think it could of been done in like 20min. We went to speddy and they quoted us 2hrs flat rate for the job. So Abe go to midas in bells corners and ask for john he is great.
