harrigan Posted July 8, 2006 Share Posted July 8, 2006 All stock. For now. Have just had the car (06 GT Sedan) a couple of months now, and am getting the itch to make it at least sound a little meaner. Considering up & down pipe, catback exhaust (and sway bars, but that's for another forum). Wondering if almost everyone here does all their own installation, and how exactly people make their choices since there seems to be a ton of vendors for each component...

TSiWRX Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 ^ Definitely like to wrench myself. So yes, I do all of my own. <-- I love Winky, my "periwinkle" (ABP) LGT! - Allen / Usual Suspect "DumboRAT" / One of the Three Stooges '16 Outback, '16 WRX, 7th Subaru Family Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waxiboy Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 So how long to install UP+DP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSiWRX Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 ^ Depends. Typically, the recommendation is to budget-in a full 8-hour day. Doing so means that you can really "go easy" and relax and enjoy the job - even take routine breaks and eat a good lunch. The actual wrench time, for first-timers of the UP/DP install process who themselves possess decent mechanical abilities. the proper tools, and have understood posted/provided directions, usually range in between 3 to 5 hours. <-- I love Winky, my "periwinkle" (ABP) LGT! - Allen / Usual Suspect "DumboRAT" / One of the Three Stooges '16 Outback, '16 WRX, 7th Subaru Family Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

al-gorithm Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 Anyone do a custom exhaust with a muffler that was center inlet and center outlet instead of having offset inlet? how was the fit? any recommendations when trying to install these center through mufflers?
