Ok first off i did use the search and i didnt find anything, not sayings its not there but iraq has the terrible internet. i recently purchased a megan racing catback exhaust and im like i said thousands of miles away and a couple months from the install and i cant find any info on removing the old exhaust and putting on a new catback. Is the stock exhaust bolted on and easy to remove or required cutting? and can i do this job with my own tools and jackstands? Thanks for any info and sorry again i wish there was a how to / install noob section

 

i don't think you searched...there's no way you searched this forum and didn't find anything. and the type/speed of internet has nothing to do with it...

you jack it up, remove 2-3 bolts, take off the stock catback, reinstall new exhaust

 

yeah your right i lied about searching....thanks for the information but it is really necessary to add in the flame spray? and the internet does matter because searching through threads for the info i need takes longer than the 30 minutes im allowed.

 

i wouldn't have flamed had it not been one of the most asked questions on this forum...i just did a search and it took me 10 seconds to find an install thread with pics

 

simple installation. evomoto or somwhere has a detailed tut.

 

It"s a simple removal and install. Cutting the old exhaust bolts my be needed, all depends on how old, and rusted your bolts are. I had to cut mine on my old evo IX, and it only had about 15K on it at the time of the install.

 

depends if youre rusted or not. some pb might help

 

I needed heat and tons of PB. I would soak the bolts from cat to midpipe each day before driving to work and at night before bed. I did it for 3 days and compared to the first attempt with no PB it was quite difficult and the second bolt needed some serious heat/PB and some crazy muscle. But it worked. Plan to be miserable for this one, I definitely pulled out the swear word sentence making book

 

what catback are you running? everything else is pretty much the reverse of what you did.

 

That secondary 0-2 sensor could be a pain to remove. Make sure your new cat a an 0-2 bung tho.
