Default OBX Resonated Test Pipe Fitment Question

Has anyone done the install themselves?

How was fitment as far as just dropping the stock cat and bolting on the OBX? Any cutting involved?

THis is the dual o2 sensor version.

Thanks in advance.

As far as I have noticed from looking at it i'm about 99.99999999% (Ok, I'm sure) that you just unbolt your cat... and bolt in the test pipe. That's all it is. It's a pipe.

I just wanted to make sure. Knowin' OBX's reputation you never know what to expect.

I installed the test pipe last night and boy was it a bitch. The flange was off by maybe half an inch so the screw holes didn't line up all the way. I finally got it to line up by twisting the B-pipe somewhat. Let's not do that again. That was just half the battle. Getting the stock cat bolts off with hand tools and no WD-40 is another story.

Can't complain about the results though. Turbo spool-up is so much faster.
