This is the Buschur 3" turbo back exhaust, with their new 'bullet' muffler. I bolted on the cat and cat-back tonight, and it sounds VERY nice! Definitly a power bump, but the stock downpipe is gonna be a restriction. I ran into some trouble with the downpipe-to-o2 housing bolts are weird, they have a sort of spring wrapped around them. Anyways, I stripped one of the bolts.

Yeah, seems those springs are a pain in the ass. Notice how a lot of manufacturers are going to a flex section in the DP so you can eliminate the springs.
