    I got my system from Chad a couple weeks ago. Very, VERY easy to install! I dry fit the entire system so I could figure out which of the two connector pipes (out of the 4) would be the best to mount the O2 Sensors on. Once I had those marked, I took them down to my local exhaust shop where he drilled 2 holes and welded the bungs on. I then mounted them back onto the headers and screwed in the O2 sensors.

    The only other "cutting" I had to do, was trimming the 2 longer connector pipes about 1 1/2" so the exhaust would line up evenly with the rear bumperette's. Otherwise, the pipes stick out about 2" beyond them.

    After everything was in place and torqued down, I drove the car down to the exhaust shop and had the 2 side mount braces welded on and connected back to the side "spring dampening" mounts.

    The sound is INCREDIBLE!!!!! Not to mention the HUGE difference in weight!!! Not the total weight of each system. The Quicksilver shaved off nearly 40 lbs!!!!!

    Now if those pipes change a goldy purply color, that would be cool.

    Nice pics. Great exhaust!
    Aren't the O2 sensors supposed to be actually inside the exhaust pipe?
    And thus located further down and in the direct exhaust flow?

    Hi
    When I got my car i got an exact replica of the standard system made in stainless steel apart from the manifold air pipes as we dont need these in the UK.
    I had heard a friends car with the sports system and whilst it sounded amazing he complained it was too loud for long journeys. I do like the more aggressive sound of the sports system but wonder what it is like on say a 100 or 400 mile drive? I know the cars are not quiet at the best of times!
    In the UK our speed limits mean you are cruising about 70-80mph
    Would be interested in your experiences
    Paul
