PICTURES

Well, I got around to taking some pictures of my recently-installed Jet-Hot LTs and the k-member area as well as some other shots. The picture descriptions are not very informative, but I hope some of the pics will prove useful to those of you out there. Also, the car in the pic is a '96 TA with original motor mounts and 94k miles.

Hey Aram,
I've got the exact same situation. Brand new ES motor mounts and mine is also practically touching the floorboard. How did you manage to install your y-pipe on that side?
Thanks.

Where could you usually pick some of this up, and how thick is it? I would think It woudl eventually wear away and leave you with the same old problem.

nothing.. I still havn't ordered a y-pipe for it. I really want to get a hooker y-pipe because it's hard to get a good custom pipe made plus I would have to tow my car to the exhaust shop, but I am afraid the hooker won't fit.

Well, mine went in today with a bunch of push and shoving. It can be done.
