Just put new exhaust on!!

Alright I just put on the apexi world sport cat back exhaust. First thing is rust f**king sucks. First I tried putting my car on ramps and working underneath it. I got one bolt off before the second bolt stripped and I was just at the part where the muffler connects to the a pipe. I eventually took it down to my dad's shop and we put it on a lift. The bolts connecting the pipe to the exhaust manifold were even worse. So we used a dremel and cut them off. After that the rubber hangers came off and so did the old exhaust. The apexi bolted right up and soon I started it. Sounded just like a stock exhaust except has a nice little growl to it. You have to know that my old exhaust had rusted off where the extension comes from the muffler and it sounded like a weed wacker. Driving is fun because nobody is staring at me as I drive around until I pass 5,000 rpm where the exhaust turns from mild to just cool. Sounds like a race car. Really happy with it. Also I just my rims on 16" Motegi Mr7 silver rims with Pirelli P7000 rubber and the grip is excellent considering I used to have 13" steelies. Also now my car feels like it has power steering because the wheel is easier to turn probably because of the tires. Over all I'm very happy and I will post pics soon.

Congrats with the exhaust install. I just recently got the WS system for my '00 DX coupe, and I'm WAY impressed with it. It has an awesome sound to it, yet it's not lour or obtrusive, and ot even close to buzzy like many other systems out there. Once higher RPMs are reached, it has a nice tone and sound to it. I love how it looks on the car, too!
