Perrin Cat Back Install...

And now it's on the car! I need to find a lift so I can get the tips alligned perfectly. They are a little over 1/4" offset and that going to bug the crap out of me until I sort it. Got it situated the best I could with just me laying on the floor. Sounds like the car should sound from the factory. More authority at idle, but by no means obnoxious. Tip in and BAM, there's my boxer engine! Thanks Perrin and Sam Strano for pointing in that direction!

The install was so easy even with one person laying on the ground. Yes, I do need some help getting the tips lined up perfectly, but I kind of expected that. Just wanted it on the car for the trip to Petit LeMans!

I'm guessing if I can get the whole car up in the air and loosen the vbands, with another persons help I can rotate the connections a bit and pull the tips into alignment. Is that the case?

Have it on my ramps cooling to give the front flange another snug down, but other than that, GAME ON!

Got the same non-resonated catback.. Perfect sound and build quality. It's money well-spent.

Yes, there is a lot of adjustment that can be done by loostening the whole exhaust and rotating the pipes with the v bands.
