Mongoosed that is. Racetech came through with the delivery real quickly. Had a look underneath it through the week.
Decided to have a local Welder/Sprayer/mechanic have a bash at it.
Took me, him, and one of his mates about 3 hours to do, on the lifts.
Had to cut the exhaust pipe arround the flange on the back and mid=20 boxes.
Snapped one stud on the cat end, and another screwed out, so he=20 rescrewed the removed one, and stick a bolt in to replace the broken one=20 (coming out soon anyway for a JJ-Jap decat).
Car sounds deeper, but actually quieter. Can hear all the other squeaks,=20 grumbles and rattles in the cockpit and engine bay now (although when=20 you lft the bonnet they stop damn). I knew that something was blowing=20 toward the front. Seems like the flexi had gone, as part of the heat=20 shielding in front of it had also rusted away, and when I lifted it=20 down, there was Soot on my hands, even though I hadn't been near the=20 open end.
Took about 40 minutes with Mole grips and oxy to get the old broken stud=20 out.
Not bad really. =A3300 for the system, =A315, and =A350 fitting.=20 Sounds nice but now I need to find where it rattles. It doesn't seem to=20 be touching anywhere though.
