Nice touch them adding the brass bolt for the probe. They forgot my hat though.

Put mine on tonight after work couldn't wait till Saturday.
Took 1 hour 15 mins did the same as some one else mentioned and swapped the stud on the engine side to the fender side so I could get a socket on it.
Haven't taken it for a long run yet but so far it makes a fair improvement and is not loud by any measure.
The tail section is very tight with the 33" spare.

Has anyone noticed a loss of down low torque or any other negative's since fitting the 3" system?

I removed wheel, put spanner into position with a piece of rope off the other end then yanked hard on the rope to get it started
Gotta think outside the box ;)

Hey guys just got one on my 3.2l and I swear my fuel economy is worse. Does it just have to wear in first or is it something else

It worse cause you are putting your foot down more/harder to hear the zorst note!

How would an exhaust wear in?

Dare I ask why you'd buy a bigger exhaust anyway? Not much point to the exercise unless you're changing the turbo or doing some other performance mod at the same time like a chip or ECU tune. I see guys doing this all the time and for most it seems to be about the noise... for performance gains there is way better bang for buck available out there.

Yep my 3.2 felt like a red rocket after the zorst was done being a auto might have something to do with it I used more fuel at first because I liked the way it sounded
Big change I found was when pulling the camper up a hill just seem to have lots moor talk
For the tricky bolt I slipped 25x25 SHS over a cut down spanner worked for me
And the oldgirl likes the sound too . Note that do stink a bit moor even with cat

Just get a remap and egt gauge first... Fitting a larger exhaust depends on how far you want to go with the tune. Your standard exhaust will support a mild tune no worries.

Only those who will risk going too far can possibly know how far they can go.
