Exhaust Install

Hey all, I'm new to the Bay area and noob in the impreza/mod world and wanted to know if anyone out there would be interested in helping me install my exhaust sometime next week or weekend? I have a magnaflow quad tip cat back coming in, but i've never really worked on or modded cars, but plan to learn and gain as much experience with my subie and you folks on here. If you live within a reasonably close distance of vacaville and are interested, either post or pm me. And as a thank you I am willing to compensate with a 12 pack of an alcoholic beverage of your choice lol.

-Alex

Especially with how new it is, the gaskets aren't completely singed on there or any dirt/grime! haha.

Might not even need any penetrating lube to get the bolts out!

Unless your bolts are anything like mine. LOL. Took me like 20 minutes to get one damn bolt in. LOL!


If you were closer I'd tell you to come on out but I'm not. You should put it on on Sat and then come out to BAM on sunday. If you're new it's a PERFECT time to come meet people and check out cars. Perfect.

Yeah, I mean granted it didn't take much time. Hanging the exhaust took more time, but caked on bolts suck.

I would love nothing more than to have it on for BAM but unfortunately it won't be here till the 18th As for tools and whatnot, I can use one of the bays at the auto hobby shop on base, but don't have any of my own jackstands or anything. I still plan on rolling out to BAM as part of the Sac caravan, I'll at least have my rallyarmor flaps on for it
