    if it's a bolt-on catback why not just DIY? 4-6 bolts, a few rubber hangers and a little time.
    Who knows?

    sure you do! Go to a parking lot and put both right wheels on a curb. Still a little awkward snaking the exhaust out from above the suspension but it works. Ask me how i know haha

    I did some searching, and I came up with this device called the jack that's supposed to lift your car up. I've also heard of this other device called the jack stand... not sure if they exist, could be mythical creations after all.
    Please tell me if you think my car looks good. But don't tell me if you think it's ugly - only on IA

    really? u know i had no idea ... i was looking for someone that had one that would have been nice enough to show a "new" person to the tuner world who doesnt own a jack yet...

    Buy some ramps, it comes in handy. It'll take you about 30 mins to install it.

    I installed my exhaust this weekend and trust me.. if I can do it anyone can. Roll your sleeves up, and get a couple of beers.

    I'm in Canton and Marietta is like a 15min drive. I responded to your PM. I'm free pretty much all weekend. Just give me a time and an address.

    so i finally got the exhaust on everyone, but with 1 little problem... one of the bolts on the cat broke when we were taking the nut off because is was too rusty and corroded... i have the extra bolts and nuts for it, but we couldnt get them off because they were too rusty... im thinking we can just cut them off and drill the hole where the rest of it is, anyone know of any other ideas or if this will even work? rep for help :-)

    FTW. This gets my car high enough in the air. Put them under the back wheels, I'm guessing. That would give you enough room to work. They're generally a good investment overall as you can change your oil with them too. Good Luck!
