Good luck!

Friday but I was at Ferg's driving school that weekend so had to wait until this weekend to install. I'll take some pics and post. Heard there was a trick to make sure the tips align correctly?

loosen the clamps and rotate until the tips
align- something like that.

Anxious to hear what you think, I've been thinking
about this... Is this resonated/non-resonated?

make sure you have some good clamps... get some exhaust compound goop to seal up the connections (prone to leaking)... if you have access to an impact wrench, that helps a lot with clamp tightening... as Scot said, rotation of the center pipe changes alignment of the rear can...

Thats about all I can think of right now.
