would it be better to do it myself..or to take it to a shop and have them install it? i think i could do it..it looks easy enough. has anyone installed the rrm exhaust on their lancer themselves?

 

everyone does it themselfs, its not hard to screw it on or anything.

 

where are you at in the bay area? you should come to the meets
one this Fri. Night at the mall in San Jose I believe at 9pm
other Aug. 3 in Sacramento (more details on that one in the post)
The more the better

 

there's supposed to be a meet this friday night at valley fair mall...i'm gonna go to that one

 

If that exhaust takes you more than 15 minutes to install with a 10 minutes break then you either can't turn a wrench very well or should give up. ...or should try lifting your car. j/k, but it's really quick and easy.

Loosening the bolts on the cat piping however...man...that took me damn near 2 hours (with about an hour of walking around in frustration).

 

that was easy!! installing my intake was harder than that. goodtimes..

 

Toldja!

Header should be much harder than any axle or cat back exhaust that's a direct bolt-on. Turn em left, take it off, put it on, turn em right. Easy as pie.

 

Knew you could do it Cleofis!

Is the stock catalytic converter on the oz lancer any good? Is it worth it to buy a high flow cat from an exhaust place? Any information on a good exhaust config would be greatly aprreciated

 

took me a good hour and a bfh to take mine off. Pa salt and rust owned the wd40. Amazing what one winter can do do a car.

 

Thats why owning a nice torch comes in handy

 

i took my car to the shop and had my exhaust welded on...my friend has a mustang and one of his mufflers fell off of his car when we were driving home from fast and the furious a while back so i got it welded, i also needed custom piping made to fit my car but if you buy the magnaflow one, more power to ya! i would have loved to put mine on myself...if i knew how to weld and do that screwy pipe bending deal!

 

The car is new everything should come right off. Do it your self,I could understand if the car was old or something.
