RB dual resonated mid-pipe - r3

sup members,
finally got time to installing the RB dual res mid-pipe,but i couldnt of done it with out the help of a couple respected hommies repin team abunai GU, thanks to jim & row for making it happen,..

with that being said.lets keep it moving.. as i wasnt the main tech to performing the job i was there fr start to finish,install time was estimated around 1 n a half with a lift. removing the oem cat wasnt so bad it was mainly that the nuts on the cat were alittle bit of a pain to R&R, it was a direct bolt on with no fabrication needed, couple parts will no longer be used such as 2 support brackets that appears to be used as a shield to protect the oem cat,and the o2 sensor shield.

on a scale of 1-5 id say 4 1/2 for easy install.i think any tom dick n harry could get this done DIY.

performed leak test. and it checked out right.... no sound clips as of now, but i could say that on idle its quit like its bone stock,but after 4-5k or wot then thats when you will notice a differents.
