Just installed it this afternoon. A co-worker knew a welder so I got the broken bracket re-welded and added a second one like the newer NHP version (on the bottom). I don't have jacks but was able to park the car on ramps in the driveway (which has an incline) which gave me plenty of room. I took off the bumper just to get extra space. Once I took off the old muffler, I took off the bolts and used them to bolt up the NHP. I'm a total novice so don't be afraid to try it yourself:dance:.

There is a huge weight difference between the stock muffler and the NHP. I only got to go on a quick drive once I had it in, but it seemed as quiet as the stock one during normal driving and a little more growl when I upped it.

We'll see it goes, and I hope I had everything clamped down tight so no exhaust leaks.

PS - the welder was impressed with the NHP muffler and said there's at least 120.00 worth of stainless steel used in it.
