exhaust removal/install

We snapped a few pictures today while removing and replacing the exhaust manifold/midpipe. Nothing significant, some of us just goofing around.









(right after i first got them out)





(this is how you negate the effects of a torque wrench!)

LOLz

Looks good tho. Some of those manifold nuts can be a bitch. All of mine but one came off easily, the stubborn one ended taking the stud out with it.

it's just silicone spray to help keep the temps down a little bit.

other than that, it's just your run of the mill obx header.

not pictures is the resonated midpipe i put on as well.
