i def plan on it, I already have a vibrant vband and picked up 2 gaskets for the catback side just been waiting for it to get a little warmer outside. I do have my dp wrapped but i too def dont like how close it sits to the alt so i will be throwing that shield back up there.

good info!!! so in resume you just use a single gasket on the downpipe--stock cat back connection??? sorry but I am kind of slow and I am planning on tagging this task sooon I want it to go down smoothly..

I have two gaskets on there now (the one that came with the dp and one i made from exhaust gas material) but it is still leaking. I plan on putting two new gaskets on there with some rtv as well and pray that it doesnt leak this time

yes i can def feel the gains and im sure once i get it tuned it will feel much better. plus i love the sound of the dp with the stock exhaust.
