Especially my last post to Mondo1. As a word of caution, do not overtighten your new muffler etc. when you do the install as you should do the "neutralization" after the new muffler goes on. I just installed a Magnaflow last week and yesterday re-neutralized it. The driver's side pipe that leads to the muffler was shortened during the install and the remainder of the system was installed cold. A tack weld was put on each muffler joint to hold it in place as it was pieced together. Yesterday, the tacks had to be cut (a pain) and as result of the neutralization, the driver's side pipe twisted a good 1/8".
Anyway, good luck with it.
