Probably will be awhile since I live in Florida....Do the hangers on the new exhaust fit right in the stock locations.... johonny do you have a step by step process on how to install this exhaust......Thanks......Tony

Congrats Tony

one of three that i know of

gsing430 ,you and I

the hangers should be right on the mark ...a little wd40 for easier removal and install

spray the bolts and the rubber hangers

if they dont come with directions ...ill give you my number and help you out

do you have metric sockets

im going to take off mine to fix and really bring back the beauty

should be just 2 bolts and remove from the hangers

it might be easier to hang it first and then bolt back up once you put the new gasket that Blitz supplies

congrats again Tony

you made the right choice

hope you agree

Yea i feel that i made a good choice...So i spray the old bolts so they come off easier and then spray the new bolts before i put them on? Is that what you were talking about? Can't wait to get it.... Thanks again.....

i bet some good chrome polish will work pretty well.... I've used a product called metalwax and just plain wax on previous pipes on the mustang.... Also the chrome Blitz exhaust is going to look great on the white GS......

Well, its probably going to be a good 5 to 10 days before it gets here to Florida... He said yesterday at IM that it had to be ordered from the warehouse and then shipped out... So I'll probably forget about it and then all of a sudden it will show up in the mail......Thats the best part.

BTW i did the AC filter mod from the DIY page....ALot of that stuff is pretty helpful... Next will be oil and rear differential change... That looks pretty easy.... Later dude
