Remember when you do the exhaust install,that once you pull off the OEM exhaust you won't be able to haul it in your car. My suggestion is to do this at your house or have a buddy along with an SUV/Truck.

Nice! Can't wait to see it installed.

Cayman makes a great point, though. Since the OEM exhaust is one-piece, you should do the install at your house. If anyone has ramps or jack-stands that they could bring over, that would get the job done.

Let me know when and where you're going to do the install - I might be able to swing by.

Yea thats the problem. When i recieved my Greaddy i actually could fit it in my trunk. I thought the stock would be the same two pieces. And since that i would be able to fit it in the trunk the same way. Now im gonna have to bring my freind along with his van.

But yea you can come by dude. We are meeting up at the aglleria in tysons at 11m saturday. If you and Thole can come it would be like a mini meet except everones there to see the GREDDY.

I haven't tried this, but perhaps you can put the OEM exhaust in the trunk sideways. One muffler would be hanging out the back, but a couple of blankets and bungie cords could help it stay in place.

Just an idea. Its either that or we move the NoVA Greddy Install/IS Meet to the front of your house

bah... just leave the stock exhaust in the parking lot for the maintenance guys to pick up and throw away... trust me on this, your gonna have a stock exhaust sitting on the side of your house forever.... or just use a battery type skill saw (sawzall) to chop it in half if you really really wanna keep it and take it home, its the collector thats the important part after all. the Y split.
