    That or pop the trans dip stick out. For SSAC/SD that's the trick. The instant that is removed, the header drops right in.

    I was under the impression the ZZP headers generally require some bending of the trans dip stick to clear the header.

    so there's this thing at the end of the downpipe in the middle of the car on the exhaust it looks like a resonator or something I know it's not a muffler because there in the back of the car so when I get the exhaust connected should I delete that , will it free up and hp if I do and will it be louder? I just want power not loud

    That is a resonator, keep it. You gain nothing by removing it, it keeps rasp down.

    Its after the flange anyway for the cat-back, so just bolt it up like normal and be on your way.

    Make sure you have a oil catch pan underneath the car when you remove the trans dip stick some trans fluid could leak out just a heads up.

    well all went good got the car started sounds great exept when I moved the engine back I'm pretty sure I bent something pretty bad because now my car won't turn the steering wheel is locked strait and I have to use all my strength to try to turn it, and I could not get the trans dipstick back in without bending the hell out of it now the stick won't go back in, I'm going to probably get an aftermarket trans dipstick as for the steering I'm scared to even look at it now I'm not new to working on cara eather so I didn't do anything out of the ordinary
