On the passenger side, the stud is on the stock midpipe (cat side) which is what you replaced with the Solo midpipe. On the driver's side, the stud is on the stock cat back tube.

Thanks for the reply regarding the O2 sensors. I am still waiting for definitive data on the mixture with a stock ecm after installing any high flow cat back system, especially one with a cai.

Don't want to single out Solo, but there are a lot of products coming on the market that claim/do improve performance that should come with a disclaimer about what effect they will have on engine longevity and warranty.

The absence of a check engine light in no way assures that a modification will not void the warranty.

Yes, I know, that many people choose to mod and enjoy the results of their work without concern as to what it will do to the warranty and that is fine, but a lot of folks do not understand that in some cases they are performing an irrevocable action when they do some of these modifications.

I am certainly not against doing whatever one wants to do with their car, but just be aware of the consequences.

I've had mine on my L99 for 300 miles now and no CEL. I did have one at first due to a bad O2 sensor but that is taken care of and no more trouble.

I like the sound (except the AFM turn-off sound which is more obvious now) and the butt dyno is definitely happy.

There is no 'drone' in cabin that I can hear but if you are accelerating the engine sound is quite obvious instead of quiet like stock.

Please please please, do away with all the flash. There's literally NOTHING on your website that requires flash. Everything on there can be done without it, which would load faster, look better and work universally on all platforms using simple html and CSS. Outside of video, flash should NEVER be used on a commercial website, especially for navigation!

If your web design company says otherwise, fire them immediately!

I hate "Flash" sites. They are slow and more difficult to navigate than a normal site.

We have been going around and around with our web guy for some time. We are forwarding Viral's post directly to him, as I believe you are right on target with that. We will look into it right away.

I agree 100%. Also another thing is many people DO NOT like sound playing when they enter a site. I would remove the intro, it was a complete waste, startles the crap out of you when the sound starts playing, and prevents your customer from getting to where they were trying to get to, which is where your products are. Many people when they hear sound play when they enter a site, will hit the back button and never visit the site again.

To get things back on topic, I'm still waiting to see dyno results showing the AFR through the entire pull, with no tune, stock intake and exhaust. No CEL doesn't mean it isn't going lean.

What grade is the nuts and bolts?
They are grade 6 but I upgraded mine to slightly longer grade 8 bolts. (the ones they shipped where a bit too short for easy install)
