Anyone wanna open a "Fast Intensions 2" in Massachusetts so I can swing by and have this done?

What is the plan?
Order it when the group buy is available and have a local shop install it?

I know it may sound like a dumb question, but I assume most are not doing the install themselves?

hence the question...
With the inclusion of the monkey comment :-(|)
it sounds like its all bolt on with no welding required.
Although I'm certified in several mig/tig applications, its not like I have this stuff kicking around at the house.
Sounds like its a basic jack-jack stand
-nut & bolt job, right?
And, we're free of CEL issues?

Personally, I plan on paying Fast Intentions to install mine. While I usually do most of my own mods such as installing springs/shocks, maintenance/oil changes, and full stereo installs, installing an exhaust system without a lift is a PITA.

What I don't like is having to work underneath the car in cramped space and having no leverage because you're laying on your back. To make matters worse, sometimes, the exhaust hangers and flanges are not perfect and you have to mess around with it to make it fit well.

After installing 1 exhaust system, I decided never to do it again. In fact, at my age, I'm at the point where I'd rather pay people to do most of the stuff on my car. It's just not worth the hassle and danger to me.

To all-

When I sat down to write up the instructions for this exhaust system I utilized the knowledge that I have from my military back round. Everything there had a loading manual step by step down to the letter how it needed to be done. It became a way of life for us. On top of that I was loading live ordnance on fighter jets so it needed to be done "by the book" and with care.

So with that said, the instructions will be very informative with plenty of verb-age and pictures. Yes, a monkey could do it...

Thanks, Tony

Interesting story. I used to design 20mm - 30mm AP and HEI ammo for you to load!
