Most of the "kits" are decent boltons...

Re: carback install question

I took my car to a shop and said "I want a 3" catback with "This" muffler. I just speficied the muffler and they did the rest. $250+parts out the door. They did a great job on it as well.

Re: carback install question

Also, sometimes it not just about the install but also about the un-install.Getting the 20 + year old intermediate pipe off of the 20+year old CAT without destroying it can be a job in itself.
