Secondary Cat Bypass Pipes Installed

Finally got around to installing bypass pipes on my 2002 S. My car already has a custom sport muffler (Pedro style) and an Evo Hi-Flow. I was hoping for a bit more music and the pipes have not disapointed. They were quite straight forward to install and the bolts/clamps all loosened easily. The big clunky cats are now gone, saving considerable weight in the process (still don't know why our cars needed two sets of cats?) The car is a little louder at idle, but nicely so. Where I really hear the difference is as soon as the tach his about 3600 rpm...the car just screams. The sound is pure Porsche, like a baby GT3. I highly recommend this mod to anyone looking for some sound out of their car, without a huge investment. I bought my Fabspeed pipes (slightly used) from another member for $300, including shipping. Also, no CEL, as I re-set the DME before starting.

Sorry, I forgot to take pictures during the install, but it sure cleaned up the underside of the car and I anticipate it will run a little cooler.
