Wow. That's ghetto. Haha I'm getting the package with cats diablo and headers. I hear the corsa is a zero drone. After I install it I guess I'll see if I want the resonator.

I was surpirsed myself that the cable were not included.

A couple other things we learned during the install. The right side is the hardest to do. It is easier to get at if the right side inner fender liner is out. Ripp suggested using all current mounting hardware so we did. We retained the stock gaskets and mounting bolts as Ripp suggested and I have zero leaks. I have checked the bolts three times and they are still tight. The right side heat shield does not want to go back on in its original configuration. You will have to trim it to fit. The left side heat shield goes right on.

If you have any questions don't hestitate to ask but it is pretty straight forward.

Definitely. Once I put the exhaust on I'll decide if I want the resonator.

I've been looking at the RIPP headers for the last month or so too. Interested to hear your thoughts of it after the install!

And that's my big hesitation!

@ SergeantChuck: I don't have any specifics yet but if I'm getting closer to buying headers I'm sure I'll have some to throw at you!
