I took her for a spin and there is a definite sound difference under load. Plus the butt dyno was pretty happy. I can't wait to get my exhaust installed now! I will post pictures later
I've already insalled the CBE and now I have the HFCs on order, so I am like a little kid at Christmas . I have a question about the "Devil or Demon Bolts". How many of them are removed from the top and how many from the bottom? I am also looking at the diagram in the manual, and it looks like there is a combinations of bolts, nuts and studs . Did you spray the bolts from the top or the bottom as well? I want to try and prepare mentally for the removal of these fasteners and try to anticipate all of the tools I will need as I will be using my tools, but a friends lift. It only took me an hour by myself to install the CBE, so I am hoping it is about the same for the cats. Lastly, are all of the old fasteners reused with the new CBE?

Jeeez, with all these questions, maybe I'll have my local Nissan Dealer do the installation .

Any help is appreciated.
