this perrin stealthback was the hardest exhaust install.. hangers were HUGE compared to the already stiff kb hangers, and the v-band was annoying as **** -.-. But it sounds good haha. Doesnt help that long beach is hot as **** either lol

Yea, me and Ray had a hell of a time putting his Perrin catback on. We told the wives it'd only take a couple minutes. It took almost an hour to get the hangars into the bushings to hang. Really annoying!

Yeah and I have to go do it again. The stock ones we left on there are done for. My exhaust is slamming all over the place. I might try and do it up at my cousins house this weekend. I've got to install my front end links too. If I can find some rear end links locally I'll do those too.

That should fix my suspension issues. I HOPE.

OK. Then I recommend the back seat window behind on the drivers side kinda facing in towards the car and closer towards the front. It will show the route and you driving the car. Does that make sense? lol

Best way to get car audio is to attach the go pro with the non waterproof case to the rear bumper so the car blocks immediate air going into the mic and just film the exhaust.

I have friend an external audio rec. and it is just too complicated to get the levels right.
