Irimis Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 Stock. Some images or the driver side. Id be interested in seeing someone elses as well. I ordered new hangers and I know the hanger on the mid pipe is off by a small amount. But I don't think making that change in the hanger is going to give me that much clearance back here.

kinder Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 does anyone know if the bosal v1.5 and Whiteline 20mm adjustable RSB will work or will they hit each other? Just put on my Bosal and I have the Whiteline RSB... no clearance issues at all. I had the 2.5" section cut and replaced. Will post picks later.

Gravet Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Has anyone installed this kit with an aftermarket DP and want to share their thoughts. Better yet, share video? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vitamin_G Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 This exhaust is interesting considering the price. There is obviously some fitment issues but how bad are they? Does anyone regret purchasing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adpsmp Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 This exhaust is interesting considering the price. There is obviously some fitment issues but how bad are they? Does anyone regret purchasing? I disagree with the fitment issues comment...not only did I not have any fitment issues, I had the whole thing installed in less than 1.5 hrs and it fit better than my stock CBE. I think this is by far the best exhaust system for the money. It costs less than half as much as the SPT or Borla, is made with the same quality materials, and fits perfectly. (I only think that the welds could have been cleaner...but they are solid enough) Just my opinion though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m sprank Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 ^+1. I recall no fitment issues and the welds could be cleaner. But for the money its the best deal going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonoco Posted April 26, 2010 Author Share Posted April 26, 2010 Spoke with Mike on Tuesday of last week and as of then he still had 15 full kits in stock. Get them while you can cause for the price your not going to get a better quality cat back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tossty Posted April 27, 2010 Share Posted April 27, 2010 Just figured I'd pass along some info I picked up today regarding the Bosal CBE. As most of you know the original SPT versions end seams of the mufflers were leaking due to a miss adjusted crimping machine. This lead to numerous warranty claims and SPT eventually going with AEM for the Version 2 they sell now through dealerships. Not everyone including myself is able to drop $700 plus on any one of the stainless steel systems currently offered for the LGT. Sure there are less expensive options like the CX Lightning/Gimmick CBE but the cost is offset with lower grade materials and sometimes questionable fitment. I came across a post about Bosal offering a Version 1.5 of their system that included redesigned mufflers. After reading a couple reviews of the system and the excellent service provided by Mike to fix the original issues I decided to call him myself. Apparently they still have about 25 full systems in stock with an addtional 75+ mid and y-pipe sets minus mufflers. Needless to say they're eager to get rid of these. I'm in no way affiliated with Bosal. I was just another curious LGT owner that was looking into a more cost effective stainless steel CBE so I figured I'd pass along what I learned. If you have more questions, feel free to contact Mike at the number/e-mail listed below. Seems like a real stand up guy and was more than willing to answer all my questions and provide some excellent pricing. Here's what I found out. -Jon Bosal Stainless Steel CBE 3" Midpipe/Y-Pipe (2.25" taper at mufflers) S/S except the flanges Inlet designed for OEM downpipe Non-resonated 1 year warranty $375 plus shipping Mid/Y-pipe Combo Does not bolt up to OEM mufflers $200 plus shipping Mike Yatkowitz Bosal USA/Bosal Performance 14 Troy Hills Rd. Whippany, NJ 07981 800-631-7271 x227 973-240-2227 (direct line) myatkowitz@bosalusa.com Jonoco, thank you for the info. Spoke to Mike yesterday and ordered the CBE, very customer oriented person. I am planning to install that with the Invidia Catless Downpipe soon. At this time I have the Bosal CBE connected to the Perrin Catless Downpipe on my STI 2006 without any issues for 4 1/2 years. Good quality and the price are very tempting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
