Ok a little update...

Over the weekend I fitted my exhaust system Phat dump pipe included and then onto an ultrex cat back system. Ultrex catback was a breeze to fit since its all just bolt up and go, the phat dump I found extremely difficult to get around and under the engine bay getting all the bolts off the heat shield (which I had to modify) . But all in all sounds really good so I'm stoked :)

Few photos attached of the system, I am aware that in the pics the exhausts are un even (getting this fixed by STechnic in Perth) at no extra cost to me.

Sounds really good below 3000rpm but will admit I'm scared to take it above that and blow something up before I get it tuned this Friday :)

Any comments or tips about what I've done please let me know :)

Once you've done a few dumps they get easier. :D

Don't think I'll be doing one again soon! I was so proud making such good progress in about the first hour, then I made my way to the dump. Then that took me another 6, then another hour for the catback. Insane!

Do much work to your car yourself? Or do you pay someone to do it?

I did the easy things like swaybars front lip endlinks etc, only things I didn't install myself were the DP and springs.
I can't work out if you understood my reference or not either. Dumps > potty training :?

My apologies. Your humour went straight over my head due to my mildly inebriated state. :oops:

Hey do you find your exhaust really loud? My ultrex system was insanely loud at first until it sutted up a bit. I also have a resenator in my centre pipe id be keen to hear what yours is like without it.

Yeah mate I like it! Seems a bit loud when your just driving normal... But I get the tune done on Friday so I'm keen to see if that changes anything. Will post some proper vids and pics up over the weekend.
