well i started on my power effects exhaust install this morning. it took me about 4 hours that includes 2 trips to town for parts and new bolts i needed. but everything went real well, all the bolts come out without breaking that is a real plus there, I preassembled all the parts minus the mufflers before crawling back under hung the pipe system then installed the mufflers. now with the headers and the pe system she sounds real good after it was all done i cruised into town and got it inspected this is the last year for the sniffer after this year it is just a visual inspection so i will have straight pipes welded into the cats





sorry they are already dust we live off a dirt road

Awesome! Pretty cool, ain't they? Glad to hear you didn't have any bolt breakage, I had one break even with heating. Can't wait to hear that sucker one of these days.

i love them! i got the portable propane torch out to heat one bolt that wouldnt budge and felt like it was going to break, but i got lucky and the heat loosened her up i also heated the slip joint some and the old exhaust slipped right off. and the sound the new one makes is awesome sure does turn some heads now

Do you have the remote setup or do you turn them by hand?

These aren't made anymore? I thought that I've seen them advertized in several places.

The mufflers are adjustable by just reaching under the quarter panel and turning a ****. They can go from mellow to real loud in a few seconds.
