it's a simple job, one thing tho, i hope you don't have a aftermarket front sway bar, cus this stupid JR race header might block its way. I have this problem and havn't solve it yet. (it clears for stock sway btw)

Are you planning to run it with their "test pipe" (that short piece of tubing with O2 bungs and a flange to connect to the exhaust) that comes with the header, or are you going to run a high flow cat at the end of it?

Did you use a bolt on carsound cat? or did you get flanges customed welded onto your cat to bolt onto your exhaust and race header?
