Default Greddy Exhaust: I got it! Now, what'll i do with it?

just got a stainless Greddy Sp-2 exhaust for my '91 CRXSi...there are three stainless pieces, two flat exhaust flange shaped gaskets and 4 bolts.

the stock exh has spring-loaded bolts and donut washers...

is this supposed to be a rigid system, no flex???

will these flat gaskets leak all the time??

should i attempt to install it myself or better to take it to a muffler shop??

will this SP2 cause me to fail emissions inspection?

ok i would personally do it myself, i had my skunk2 catback installed at a shop 2 years ago but at that time i wasnt really knowledgable about my cars and such. if you can use lifts or a jackstand and feel comfrotable doing it then i would say go ahead, theres really nothing that could go wrong except for stripping a bolt but i wouldnt worry. w/e you do enjoy the exhasut i heard good stuff about it.

Theres a piece missing from your rear bumper. Nice system tho, personally like my custom KTeller.com setup but that thing looks nice, someone should post a sound clip or somethin..

just have fun getting the rusty nuts off the converter studs i would buy new nuts from the dealer before install because they probably wont be useable when they come off, i had to torch em to get em off, if you only have access to a propane torch first wire wheel them then heat up with torch till red and the squirt with cold ice water it usually cracks the rust and comes off you might have to do this a couple times on each nut, at least thats what you have to do in the N.east where the car sees salt and corrosion
