by my cousin (he works at a tire place) so we had a true shop lift. We did a quick job (and I didn't have the Cat yet) so it wasn't aligned just right, with some banging. It's tight in a lot of places (those pipes are BIG. Had the Cat installed at Monro where they aligned the pipes a little better. I had a leak with the downpipe/cat junction which Monro welded for me, other than that I just used the supplied clamps. I think I need new Turbo flange nuts though, as I have a leak right at the turbo now. Someone else had a similar problem and I figure 3 nuts can't cost me that much (they're just tough to get on).

Also, Mine came with 2 straight pipes, one was about 2 feet, the other was longer. The 2 foot one is the "cat bypass pipe" the other goes from there back to the mid muffler. Hope you didn't loose one pipe in transit.

Good luck and enjoy it.
