I am not in socal but I did want to say good luck and have fun with the install. Remember its not really the pipes fault you cant get that 10mm in there to get that clamp tight lol..... anyway an extra set of hands is deffinitley usefull on this one.
LOL I have seen a guy about that age in my area also driving a ss MS3.................................What does that tell you about the color SS HA HA HA HA
When I installed the Cpe TBE I had only one bolt that was a pain to get to thats all. Its not that hard to install at all. In fact it was much easier to do that my friends Corksport TBE
I have an early build 2007 and just put my Cpe TBE exhaust on last week. The car has 57K miles on her. So far NO SMOKE AT ALL.... I will post back in a few weeks to update the issue.
