Just wanted to give kudos to Mac Products. I have Mac 1 5/8" headers, catalytic and dual chrome-tip cat-back. When installing the cat-back I apparently didn't tighten one of the bolts that holds the tips to the bumper and it worked its way loose, causing me to lose the bolt , bracket and rubber isolator mount.

I emailed Mac Products last week and they sent me a new hardware kit in the mail.

They've been very helpful to me throughout my install, even though the cat-back did not have installation instructions.

I like it so far. I got the headers second hand unused. I didn't like the welds on the inside of the flanges, so I had the outsides welded and ground off the welds from the inside of the tubes, then had them HTC coated by Paul Barry Motorsports.

The installation was kind of a PITA because I ended up having to lift each side of the motor after removing the motormount bolt.

But... the Tru-Fit system is really nice. No crimp clamps, no band clamps. Everything goes together very nicely and is leak-free so far.
