Man work has been brutal.

I did this last weekend and I think it turned out OK.



Still need to do the steering wheel yet but that's another day.

I have ZZP's long tube catless with their 3 inch cat back, resonator and muffler included. I personally think it sounds nice for a 4 cylinder. Definitely better than the hacked up 2.5 inch cat back the previous owner installed. Only thing I miss is the pops and crackles it made, wasn't resonated and the muffler was half the size of ZZP's.

Removed the electrical box in anticipation of installing LSJ oil cooler. I really hate losing weeks of progress at a time waiting on unanticipated parts. Oh well it's my own fault. I never even though about LSJ having an oil cooler until I went to fire up my car for the first time and dumped oil all over my garage floor.
