Default UPS arrived with this....


Lucky my wife was home and she was able to receive 2 boxes and something wrapped up in bubble wrap.


Of course it was John delivering in super fast time, less than 2 months from order date to delivery!


Renault Cat


Twin loop muffler, can't wait to get rid of my Invidia!


Header assembled, was easier than I thought.


Some minor damage on cat.


Another shot of the dents, I guess I can just use a hammer to bang it straight


How tight do you need to tighten the bolt and nut?


Since I have not installed it yet, what is this extra connecting piece for?


Do you need to weld it when you put it together or is it just slip fit like the header?


Hytech FTW!

Unfortunatley it is cold here but I still can not install it yet as the car is going back to the shop tomorrow to get the oil burning looked at, 1300 miles since rebuild over 7 quarts of oil lost through leak and burning... Hopefully this will be repaired and the exhaust installed by EXPO 8 time...

He is actually caught up now, when I ordered he told me he had parts to build a bunch of them. It has been great dealing with him.

Thanks, Marc... I have always wanted to try this setup and finally bit the bullet and ordered the setup.

I always wanted an M coupe when I had my 98 M Roadster. When I sold it I said the next BMW would have the be a S54 M Coupe. Alas, the integra needs to sit out in the cold as my wife's civic has the other spot. Lucky for me I don't have an R only a GSR...

No better feeling than waiting for UPS or FEDEX and finally seeing it arrive

They're simply amazing cars, so well rounded. Like the euro cousin of the Type-R... If your cousin likes steroids.

It's just used for shipping to protect the two layers of tubing at that joint. Just take it out when you install and you'll see how the axle-back portion fits in. Mine has been sitting in my garage for a couple years now. You're going to love this. Glad you got yours man.

Invidia is basically the same as Skunk2. Sounded ok with silencer when it was knew but after the packing material blew out, the noise is too loud to use on a regular basis.

Once I get the motor fixed I will install the header and exhaust and then retune the hondata.
