i wish this was minor bolting. i'm just waiting for my parts to arrive.
i'm pretty sure i'm going to need to weld the high-flow cat on.
You do need to weld it up, you'll need old exhaust parts to do it with too. Simply attach everything open header, then take it to a welding shop to get them to weld it up right.

hmm.. ic... well i was talking to a friend of mine and he works at a shop.
he said with just the racing beat headers/downpipe a cat and the cat-back corksport
exhaust he can make it happen. w/o using old stock exhaust pipes (which i do not have... ) HEHE.... but its going to be pricey for my end.

*sigh*... I put my car back together today.... (I replaced my injectors, kinda changed my omp (pluged in a new one but didn't take the old one out) and took out my air pump and acv and stuff... so I took it on a test drive and I was going up a hill and it just shut off... and it won't start again.... so I think I blew up my ECU. anyone have any suggestions?

It was just a firmware problem because of the way we decided to control spark. The fuel computer itself runs fine
If I had let the stock ECU control spark, I'd be driving the 'vert right now.

However, I dont like the stock ECU controlling spark!

Well... rear suspension is ordered and should be in today. Not sure if I'm going to install it today or wait until later tho.

Every FC I've ever driven with a stock (or stock rated) clutch had severe slippage however, I'm guessin that all of them were just old clutches since mine grips hard enough to chirp 2nd gear now. The new clutch was cheap as hell but it does its job really well for stock performance levels.
