The installation....really...isn't that hard. I had to take all of my passenger seats out.....and pry up the carpet. Underneath the back passenger seat.....there is a metal plug that has to be knocked out. I ran all of my wires through there.....and up through my console.....I had about 2 hours into doing it....but..it relaly payed off..it's great!

Where on your exhaust did you put the cut out... ie. directly before muffler, directly after cat?

The whole idea of a cutout is to have it before the cat so that it acts like a dump or open headers... with absolutely no restriction at all. Depending on how well you grease your state inspector's palms it may or may not pass inspection. I give my guy a $15 "tip" every time. Last year he didn't even open the hood
