this is a how to install a DC sports cat-back exhaust... it is very easy and can be done by anyone with a socket set jack stands and a dremal..

***WARNING & DISCLAIMER***
make sure you jack the car up safley and securley.. i am not responsible if you crush yourself due to improper jacking.


step 1) open your new catback exhaust and dont let your dog eat the peanuts.





step 2) safley lift your car..... i put tires under mine for added safty






step 3) undo these 2 bolts... thay came off easy for me with just a socket set.





step 4) you must cut the stock exhaust... i cut mine here and i used a dremal and 6 cutting wheels





step5) take off all the black rubber hangers there are 4 of them and thay just slide off





step 6) now your old exhaust will come right out




step 7) now just install your new exhaust buy hanging it back up to the rubber hangers and then bolting it back together where the bolts are remember to follow the directions that came with your new catback

How does it sound? And can you feel the difference when you floor it?

 

Nice.
I had mine instaled at the shop for 20 bucks do to the lack of a jack when I bout it. Mine craped out on me.

Later

 

$20 not bad... i thought it would be more than that .. they always try to screw you at the shops

 

nah, dealerships and some bigger places will charge you an ass load of money.

ive always charged anywhere between $20 - $40 (depends on what needs to be done, and how long it will take me)

 

Nice I wish DC Sports made a catback exhaust for the LSJ.

 

Sweet write up. Now u just need a sound clip.

HEy im about to buy one of these, how do u like it?

 

nice write up and nice sound.

 

i love it... its not ricey at all.. it has a deep sound and its quiet at idol


.

 

Sweet and as far as performance?

 

Stupid question: Does a cat-back exhaust come with a cat? I was under the impression that the exhaust came after the cat. Maybe I'm just interpreting the photos wrong? Thanks.

And I thought by now I was past the noob stage.

 

no they dont come with a cat.. thats a resonator in the photo.

.

 

Yeah if you forget, then you don't get the extra power

 

nice write up man

 

Thanks. One more question: How come it is neccessary to cut the exhaust? Does it go over part of the frame?

 

it goes over the rear axle.. so if you dont want to cut it then you would have to take your rear axle off

.

 

does the dc sport exhaust fit the ss/sc??

 

nope... but i heard some people made it fit


.

 

It does fit. I threw the dc sports catback on my 07 ss/sc the other night. Loud

 

nice, really clean & nice how to..... (Including the dog warning)

 

yea dat sounds nice....what model of cobalt you have?
