Installing a Catback
Installing a Catback
I purchased a Mufflex 4" And im wondering if i should attempt putting this on myself i have no experience, everything else has been done by a shop... I've got no skill... But i mean it LOOKS relatively simple... any ideas?
do you have a jack?...and aa set of 4 jack stands? basic hand tools? if so.....give it a shot...you need to start learning somewhere....why not save some money and start learning here. have a friend help you!
if you dont have any.....ask mom or dad
if there not around....hire some guy off the street to help.....yeah you will still spend money...but you will learn something in the process!!
good luck

Just get some ramps, back your car up on them and go to town with a saws-all
Hack the old exahust off (unless you want to keep it for some reason) and put the new one on. Its easy to fit the i-pipe if you have two people.

I think you would be better off with jack stands then ramps, that way when the car is in the air the rear end will drop, giving you clearance to take out the muffler and exhaust pipe that runs over the rear, and will give you more room when you are putting in the exhaust that's what my brother and I are planning on doing next weekend with my exhaust.

Just wondering, what kind of setup do you have to have ordered 4" exhaust, you might be overdoing it and losing some of the backpressure you need.
