Well I'm taking a break for lunch and I'm halfway done. Stock midpipes are off. 02 sensors don't want to come out so I went to get some PB Blaster and a 02 sensor socket. Hope they come out after lunch. Try to get them installed this afternoon.
UPDATE EDIT:
OK they are in. 02 sensors on the driver midpipe were a bear to get off. Everything went together pretty easily, just had to take my time. The driver side mids to manifold is the tightest clearancwise and took the longest. No leaks yet (knock on wood).
Impressions:
It's louder of course. At idle and part throttle to 2K it is about the same with a little more volume. On heavy or WOT it is louder with I guess some raspiness to it. Might take a while to get used to. Drone is still there from 2K to 2.5K revs, so whoever says the resonators cause drone on 04's is wrong. It sounds a little more "truckish" now, I'm not sure I'm digging that yet. It has also thrown an 02 sensor code twice already. I can clear it with my Predator, but if it does it every drive, it will get old fast. So much for JBA's claim that it wont affect sensor codes. I'll post up a sound clip if anyone wants one.
