Wow jegs is fast!.. so is summit... I got my catback and cat today... i think im gunna need to be getting some large adapters and what not to fit the cat and y pipe... I got a catco 3in 3 out universal fit AIR cat.. i dotn belive it will be long enuff... so im kinda upset about that, but hey.. chit happens.. also, that flange on the cat back looks like a PIA to take off, and its shapped like an oval? there are some dings and dents in the pipe which im not to happy about...
Day 1: i fitted most of the pipe up and saw how it fit.. very nice.. i like the tips and might keep them on... dunno yet. Went to start taking off the exhaust and started with the C clamp on the front side of the cat... spray a lil WD,... go at it with a 15mm socket.. nada! no movment... spray and leave... try again... nope... i find that the socket isnt working cause its to shallow.. i go into my took box to look for a deep 15mm socket... NOPE.. ZIP ZERO NADA! great.. so next best idea... get dremmel and cut bolt end off to shorten lenght of the c bolt... do it... spray... i go to start wrenching it off, and i feel a rain drop on my leg.. im like... oh no not now... i pack up my stuff and get everything back in the garage... im pissed cause i wanted to start earlier but other things are going on right now that i cant control... Since i have friday off, i plan on working on it friday.. i just hope to have it on by the end of the day. I am going to bring my I pipe to the shop in the back at work to have the flange cut off. Then im gunna need to stop in at the local parts store for some clamps and hanger stuff for the driver side... can anyone post pics of exactly what they did for the driver side hanger? thanks

I'm too embarrassed.

Avoid my mistake and order a direct-fit '86-'90 TPI single-cat application high flow (like Summit p/n CAT-9118) right now and put that on instead. The time it will take to get to your doorstep and for you to get it on will be less than what you'll spend getting that universal thing in there (send the universal back for a refund).

 

yes, but i didnt order the propper cat back to fit my car, i got the lowest price one, and it really doesnt matter since its gunna get all welded in place eventual.
