You could just go through paypal if you would like. Shoot me a PM if you are still interested.

Here's a vid of my old setup. My new BadMab will be installed hopefully this weekend if the weather doesn't suck too bad. All catless downpipes produce the same sound Mine also has a muffler delete in this video.

If you're referring to my car (black one...not blue)...then yes. Muffler removed, replaced with straight pipe and the stock tip back on.

Heat the metal around where the sensor threads in not the sensor itself

i am willing to bet 5 grand with liquid wrench and your muscles, you will not be able to break the sensor loose.

i got pb blaster at my house. all i need is your muscle, so come over here!

Yeah mine was seemingly welded in...so I just disconnected the sensor up by the transmission and left the BadMab supplied hole plug in the downpipe. There's not even a rear O2 connected to my car anymore
