Wow that was hell

Keasbey · August 31st, 2010, 07:50 PM

Me and my father installed the bbk long tube ceramic headers and x pipe on my 97 cobra vert. Talk about a job from hell. we started on sat and finished on monday night. kept running into complications. nothing that one couldnt get past... but just time consuming. the header nuts were a pain to get off an 2x as difficult to get all of them back on.

what im saying is... pay the extra to have someone else do it. if i didnt take vacation time to do it this would have never been completed. but it sounds good. im currently running stock muffler and pipes... any suggestions for the future?

I've read a lot about BBK being hard to fit anyways.

For a cat back my Magnapacks sounds awesome with my catted x. I'm sure it sounds even better without cats though.
