In preparation i bought a stubby 22mm and a O2 flex 22mm wrench. I cut the opening wide to slip over the harness easily.
I am thinking of removing the cats to make the install easier on the driver side.
Now only if I can get my header and exhaust so i can do this. Getting close to a month since order.

Couple of shots with the endoscope - of the hard to get heat shield screw. The driver side difficult header/turbo screw is actually covered with the heat shield, will take shots of it when I am under their next. .. while waiting I got nothing else to do.Its easy to get to these with the wheel removed, I am going to use a flex attachment

Mine (uncoated) should be arriving next week. Really hoping I like the change in sound but I wonder if I'll **** off my neighbors during a cold start at 5am.

Doesn't really matter as long as you are consistent in all your testing.

Side note, I've been having a little fun listeningvto music with it. You can see the bass line and vocals.

Well, now I have this too.




Cargraphics Sport Cats from Germany.

Now I am debating if I should install all 3 or just 2 out of the 3.

Thinking of keeping the PSE and selling the sharkwerks, the fit and finish, ceramic coating is amazing on sharkwerks

I listed mine in market place, if anyone is interested for immediate delivery.

I may comeback to it, but I am going to try the headers and cats only first.

Can't say enough good things about sharkwerks customer service and build/finish quality.

I see you've already made a decision, but I would've suggested doing the exhaust and headers, in that order.
