so bascially it is a bolt on. the only reason you cut anything is because it goes over the rear axle and thats how you have to get it out?

 

yeah thats why i cut it... and if you ever want to Re use your stock exhaust you could just weld it back toghter

.

 

Thanks for the how to. I have a DC sports catback exhaust coming so knowing it's an easy install is good news.

 

I needed an impact wrench to get my stock exhaust off it was so rusted after 6k miles

 

sick dude, i let my dealer do it cause i didnt wanna wait...it cost me though

 

this a great how to quick question does any one know where i can get the DC sport headers as well as the exhuast systems???

thanks will look into

 

Yes. Perfect fit. I had the GM Performance exhaust on my car and my buddy with a 2.2L that had the DC Sports decided we should switch out for a day just for the hell of it. Both fit on each car perfectly. We switched back because the DC Sports was just too loud for me. Haha.

 

Great Pics Man Hey could you or anyone help me I have a 2006 SS Supercharged and I was wondering is it better to keep the Exhuast pipes a stock 2 inch pipe or open it up with a 3 inch pipe all the way through? Some say it makes the supercharger breath and some say I lose HP. Somebody Help me lol

 

So there is no way to take a stcok cat back in one pice?

 

ok so what happens where u cut it..?? is that where u weld it back together or what?????

 

where u at in fl

 

This guy that i see at the gym has an ss/sc and gm took his cat back off in one pice...and installed GMPP cat back......i think u have to take suspension off and wheele to take it one pice?

 

I finally got my DC sports catback installed, with the GMPP headers. It sounds sick. Not farty or ricey at all. I love it.

 

good write up, i got the megan exhaust and installing it was a breeze, ps, i used a sawsall to get it, cut it off in less than 1min.

 

the easiest way to install your new exhaust that i found is to start from the muffler and work your way back

 

Would I be able to cut the exhaust wtih a good hack saw or is the metal crazy think and hard?

 

I payed $35 to have it installed and that included welding a custom 3.5" Tip onto my GMPP Touring Catback Exhaust
Took 15 min.

 

I have a SS/SC also and the stock piping is 2.5" and unless you plan on making mad amounts of horsepower this is plenty. I spent weeks searching for a good sounding exhaust and ARK makes an amazing sounding exhaust for us. I just ordered it today Ill post some pics and maybe even a video if i get around to it after it gets here and I install it.

 

nice write up.

 

i like the black lab...

 

im looking to get a better exhaust for my car and I would like to try and do it myself (never did before) However, when you cut the old pipe off, how are you putting the new one on? Do you bolt it in..weld it (I have never welded thats why I never did this) or what? Looking through this, I didn't really see.

 

is the catback system the same for all cobalts ls lt ss ss/sc and ss/tc

 

Nice sticker
