First of all, I want to say that the service Joe P gives is wonderful. The total cost with shipping was 150 bux, which is what got my attention initially when I was searching for o2 dumps. I ordered my o2 dump from his site and less than a week and a half after the initial order, I got it:thumb: That's service. Impressions from just the looks of the o2 dump...BEAUTIFUL! It has some sort of polished coating on it which looks really, really good. The dumptube extends about 2 to 2 1/2 inches past where the downpipe bolts up. The welds on the o2 housing/dumptube are very thick. It looks like whoever fabricated the piece took their time on the welds! I'll have a review up later this week after the install. How the install went and,of course, the performance gains! I can't wait:D
 
Or you can go to google and type in "Joe P o2 housing". Anyway, I finally got it on! First with the install. The fitment is pretty good. The first thing I noticed was that the Joe P o2 housing had no studs for the downpipe nuts to bolt up to. So I had to go to a local hardware store and buy two bolts/nuts. It was pretty tough getting the bolts on,etc. The third bolt (closest to the ground) is a bit*$ to get to. For me, I had to take the oil filter off and the dipstick piece/holder. This allowed me to loosen/tighten that particular bolt really well--from beneath the car. The bottom of the dumptube is very, very close to the oil filter housing. The dumptube is cut at an angle so that it doesn't get any exhaust gases directly on the oil filter housing. I had to hack the lower heat shield a bit to make it 'fit'. I still need to work on it since it's touching the metal front part of the fan housing. I think it'll be alright though since it's just metal:) I'll keep everyone posted on the sound/performance gains.
