exhaust installed

Well the sun finally shined and I got the new exhaust installed...just got done and got cleaned up. My wife was going to be gone today and leave the baby with me, but she decided to stay home....so I took full advantage of the situation. For the most part everything went very well....the only problem I had was breaking the only metal blade I had for the sawsall....just so happened that the wife had just left to run errands with the only other vehicle we have so I had to make do....I finally just got out the grinder with a cut off wheel what a PITA! Everything lined up perfectly on the install....didn't even have any issues with getting the clamp back on the DP....must have been my day! I haven't taken it for a test drive yet but on start up the tone sounds alot deeper and can hear more tubo (have WW to install yet too) Anyhow it went alot better than I could have hoped for now it's time for

What system did you install? Trying to get mine finished up too... if the dang sun would poke out from behind a cloud it would be so much nicer to be out there working...

Sorry about that I meant to put in that it was a 4" MBRP SS turbo back, got it for christmas.
I feel for you Ron....it's been a long cold winter here too....not that much snow but it's been cold. I don't want to rub it in...but it's been in the 50's and 60's here for the last week, of course the wind has to blow almost that much every day.
