Exhaust is on!!!
 
After waiting nearly two months for all of my exhaust components to arrive, everything is finally installed!

My brother took my car to work with him on the 4th(No holiday in Canada!) and said that if he had time he'd get started on my headers. By the time I got off of work and came by to pick him up, him and another mechanic had already installed my headers, y-pipe, off-road pipe, spark plugs, 02 sensors and 02 simulators! He said it basically took 2-3hours and they didn't have any problems!

On saturday, we installed my Borla cat-back in about an hour and a half and the only problem we had was the inlet into the muffler was slightly bent so we used a pipe expander to correct the problem.

I am extremely happy with the SOTP difference and the change in exhaust note, everyone seems to love it!

My only concern is the orp seems a little low and we are lowering my car this weekend with sportlines, I guess we'll have to try and adjust it. Other than that, everything is great. No leaks and the ceramic coating looks great! I did set off an ses light while running the open plate but I swapped in the second largest plate and it went away, probably OBDII egr code.

Sorry for the length of the post but I just wanted to let everyone know how happy I am with this set-up!:D
