I happened across a guy that was just giving his stock 2004 exhaust minus the resonator away. I jumped on it because I love the sound. I did this by myself. It took about 2 1/2 hrs to remove the old exhaust and 30 minutes to put the new one on. Thanks to whoever invented dish soap. I was very suprised when I got under there and realized that the only thing that was holding the thing on was 3 nuts at the cat and 5 rubber mounts. Those rubber mounts were the hardest thing about the whole deal.

 

looks good!

nice looking kids too. James you did put a chuck (a block of wood or something) in front of you front tire, right? good.

 

Thanks. Of course I did.

 

One word....WD40. It works wonders on those rubber mounts. Of course this is information that probably would have helped earlier

 

Dang, you did it with the wheels on!? Wow. I took my wheels off and it still took me about 5 hours to swap exhausts by myself.

 

I started at 4:00 and was done in time to go to church at 7:00. Btw, anyone want an ap1 exhaust with 71000 miles on it?

 

I've been thinking about doing that same thing.

Any chance you can get some pics from about knee-high?

 

Here are some pics at what I'm guessing knee high is. Hope this helps.

The dishsoap worked well on the mounts after I determined that brute force would not be adequate.

 

Looks good, how much difference in the sound?? Louder? softer? just different?

 

nice lookin!!
