Default test pipes install

that's for those test pipes nick. It was a b*tch to install though!! I didn't have any pneumatic tools, and everything was with a ratchet. the bolts connected to the headers gave me problems, and they all needed some muscle to loosen with very little space. I found myself ontop of my engine, trying to crack one of the bolts from the header on the drivers side. and then the pipes had a hard time fitting onto my y-pipe properly.

Was it hard to fit the test pipes onto your y-pipe?? I had to stretch the sh*t out of the y-pipe just to make both sides fit. It was also getting late, and i had to install the drivers side without the gasket, connecting to the y. I had to pry the test pipe and y pipe to make the holes line up, and i couldn't get the gasket to stay between.

Hey Kamu, i might have to bring it down to you, and pay you to redo my test pipes. I was impatient, and i wanted to install them already. But it made a big difference in the noise, and my Z does feel faster with the pick up. Those Cats restricted a big amount of gasses flowing out.

You available tomorrow (Sunday) ?? I'm at work today...

I came out to the last one, but i didn't like the crowd without the Z's. The meets are just always set up on the days i work, or nights when i work the next day. There wasn't one meet on my days off yet. I'm off from thursday to sunday this week. If there are any meets, i'm gonna show... GUARENTEE, I MIGHT...
