Rock the catback for a while and you'll be dying for a high-flow and downpipe.
Oh, and you don't need to weld a bung as long as you're sticking with the stock O2 sensor. It's only necessary if you're adding a wideband.
You can plan on doing it here...I think Eric and I had his done in under a half hour!

I know, at first, I just wanted to get the catback, since I got the JDM rear, so it would look cleaner in the back...now I'm debating spending more money and doing the dp and cat, since I'll be down there and have the exhaust off....damn, never ends...I'll probably stick with the catback so I wont have to worry about emissions....

The turbo's out for now. Between the Nav and this nasty alarm i built for the house/garage, I've gotta keep an eye on my loot. I think at 60k, I will just pull the motor to do cams, t-belt and clutch. It seems like a reasonable course of action.

Just make sure your isht comes with hardware and gaskets...I usually have extras of each lying around, but I can't be sure...

I worked on my buddy's car all winter with nothing but a kerosene burner. I actually like working in colder weather, I have flannel insulated carhart pants and a "car" sweatshirt that keep me cozy The wood burning stove should keep the garage as warm as inside the house. Might be beach weather even!
Dave, I cant wait to see the nav.

Now that stove will get to 600 degrees and keep the workshop in the 70's and 80's and the garage in the 55-70 range. Sometimes you can work in a t-shirt out there...others you gotta bust out the "car" hoodie.
