Great job and I'm glad you like it! Cool to see you tried it yourself! Definitely the most difficult thing I've changed on my car. How was the gasket when you removed it?

I bet you notice a nice boost in pickup around 2k-2.5k rpm now too. Made me grin the first time that happened.

Yeppers! In the 1ks it feels like it may have lost a morsel of power but 2k and on is like hitting the afterburner!

My gasket was very shiny

Of course, mom doesn't like it because of how loud it is.

It's actually quite entertaining rolling through the local towns. I just look like a grumbling smart car...until I accelerate off!

Yep; it's just you that needs to be installed narrow-side-up. The exhaust system is fine.
