    Its alot cheaper to order everything online, i order every part online, i normally save 50%-70% off what the local part shops cost. Thats me though. The cat converter is easy, its 4 bolts, you just have to be carefull not to break the bolts, the two on the engine block on mine came off like butter with my impact gun and the right extensions, the two underneath by the resonator broke on me, and i had to drill them out.

    I'm definitely gonna help. I could do it but with the lift at his work makes it so much easier to work on and I'm doing the plugs wires and cleaning the throttle body

    Don't need a lift really do any of it...but I guess it helps for the DP.

    I would have snagged a larger downpipe from zzperformance...like a catted 3" one. A little more money but still street legal, and will get rid of the crappy factory style downpipe so the car can breathe better.

    When you clean the TB, I'd clean the MAF, too.
