off road xpipe installed


my off road xpipe finally came in today from UPR. Im replacing my Bassani catted x with it. It was a pain in the ass to get the bolts off the x pipe on the passenger. ive read alot about how its hard but man it was really hard. sprayed it with pb and let it sit. after a couple hours i finally got it off. It sounds really good but i have a bit of an exhaust leak and i will fix it tomorrow. i was just too tired to do it after being under the car for 4 hours. I will make a video soon...i promise

sweeet! I really like your Stang! Do you have any big pictures of it? I want to check out that spoiler! I dont like the stock one, its too big and dumb looking. that little end of the trunk one you have looks interesting

btw just letting everyone know...if they want to install an o/r xpipe..disconnect ur battery before installing..i dunno if anyone knows that already..after install i didnt see any check engine lights...i already have O2 sensor extensions for the rear..i was actually surprised of not seeing a check engine...hmmm

the check engine light comes on after the car detects the same problem three trips in a row. read up on it in your haynes manual, it's all there.
