I'm interested, I'll be in davis tomorrow anyway. As to where to do it... I think you can do it at sharps and flats or avalon. They don't really care if you prop your car up.

Sharps and flats sounds like a good idea. I usually park my car downtown

Hey Cashis if you haven't done it yet and want to do it tomorrow(Thursday) we can do it in my garage. I don't have my tools with me, but there's plenty of garage space. Let me know!

I was just wondering how high you have to lift the car to get the exhaust out? Are jack stands high enough or does it need to be up on a rack? I'm also getting ready to install an exhaust.

Thanks to everybody who offered help I slapped on my STI catback instead because of all the reports of exhaust tickets. I will need your help next week when I do my brake pads/rotors & H6 rear upgrade

Hey, just letting you know. I took my rear box out without lifting, I just had it on the slope of my drive way. And you don't have to lift it all that much to get the rest of it out. I just used my jack and jacked up the car. It's pretty easy.

Oh, and i guess we aren't putting it on at all now? Hahaha. There was a STi driving around last summer with no exhaust at all. I heard it from a mile away. I was working at Dos at the time.

Well ok, hit me up if you ever want to do it again. Give me advance notice if you want to use my tools too. I have a 02 sensor wrench.

Cheers.
