    Nice, install is super easy, not sure you really need help, unbolt two bolts slip off hangers, and reverse that to install it. I have a couple Kartboy long hangers laying around, holler if you think need them.

    I'm getting a trolling motor for chirstmas.

    Theres a Down-pipe and an Up-pipe in that last pic too :) Not quite as simple? and I have no space to work on it, and no tolls ot mention that. Pretty sure Readymix said he would help for beer.

    Ooooh shiny! What DP? and is it the Race or regular catback?

    Oh yeah I'm sure you did but make sure the muffler didn't have dents in it the first two I got from Invidia had dents in the same spot.

    I had that same box (invidia downpipe) as a Christmas present 3 years ago. I was not and am still not disappointed with it!

    It is the Resonated (street) catback and Catless DP and UP, My dad is worried about it being super loud and obnoxious when i drive around the neighborhood, guess ill just have to throw it in neutral and push it untill i get far enough away, or take it super easy. Im exicted though, trying to get it on before the new year, not sure if I willl happen however. Also, this may sound dumb, but does it come with everything i need, or do i need to get some gaskets for the DP and UP? or can i just reuse the stock one??, this is something i don't know.But Seriously, what are the rest of you getting?

    Edit: I meant to say it is the V3 Divorced Wastegate DP!!

    Most systems come with new gaskets, but if it didn't, make sure you go out and buy new ones. They are only designed to be used (compressed) once. If you reuse the old ones, you'll definitely get exhaust leaks.

    Nice looking stuff! Have fun with it! Gonna do an ECU flash?

    Get new gaskets, they are cheap. Talk to driftin240 or AWDImprezaL at MTKA subaru, they can get them for you. Trust me, you definately do NOT want an exhaust leak.

    Yes, beers. But I prefer a Cheesy Gordita Crunch and a Spicey Chicken Crunchwrap Supreme. It's probably cheaper than 10 tacos and far more satisfying.

    while this is true in theory, the fact is I have had mine of multpile times... especially teh x-over pipe gaskets.. I would say a minimum of about 15 times to build x-overs and they still dont leak...

    just dont be a hack when removing them.... you should be ok.. this being said.. if you have the chance to get new ones then do it.. for the sake of an extra $20 or so...
