Hope you got a 200lb impact wrench otherwise forget it. $40 will get a muffler shop to change it out in under ten minutes.

You may also have a hard time with that upper bolt at the tunnel, not hard to do, but a pain to get at. Try dropping the manifold end first to make it easier.

Down pipe is on!! It was a piece of cake. Switched it out in 20 mins. Its nice cuz regular driving its not much louder until you put the hammer down you can really hear the difference. Its rainy out so i can't really feel a difference in power. I'm happy.

Your not gonna see much until you get it 3" all the way back. You are still causing back-pressure, albeit not as much but still some.

In stock form, the cats choke it and the 2.5" is fine. You now are going from 3" to 2.5". Think of a funnel effect
