yeah, he works for a local preowned stealership. luckily he's a good friend of mine and has been for a long time... however for something like the middy, i was quoted 50 bux to swap it from my mom's mech... so if those of you who are looking into it and don't have access to tools/friends with a shop and think it'll be expensive... it's not.

coupe middy FTW! install is a pain, if you see snow, get replacement bolts. i was able to save the ones for the muffler but not for the y-pipe. that had to be... replaced. and you can't drill those out, apparently, and they also don't like to be heated up. :P
when we torched the bolts, the WHOLE thing heated up, then the bolt ended up hardning up even more than it was before we started. even with a new carbide drill bit, couldnt get it out.... so other measures were taken... and i'm not going to divulge them

Post a vid when you do it. I wonder how it will sound with the addition of HFC's.
