this is a little off topic but how hard is is to replace synchros in the transmission or is it worth it to pay someone else to do it

Use the video function on a digital camera, that'll work way better

That vid was my old exhaust. I actually had the stock resonator. It was 2.25" piping from the stock resonator back, more like mid-back exhaust....

Heres my current catback: tanabe g-power medallion

Don't ask about the shifts to second lol there was absolutely no space.

Oh btw my setup is as so:
Weapon -R secret weapon CAI
OBX header + downpipe
Magnaflow highflow cat (which doesnt even register as working properly and throws codes 24/7)
custom 2.25' piping
25" glasspack in place of resonator ($30 from advanced auto parts lol)
more custom 2.25" piping back to...
Cocoas Apexi N1 Muffler!

Woot!

EDIT: You guys have to admit it sounds a lot better than it did with the magnaflow... also a lot better when I got the n1 welded... the most recent vids previous to this were with the n1 held on my exhaust clips and exhaust tape with a few leaks. Also with a custom resonator (18") i think...

sorry for the triple post chris the uploads took longer than expected! consolidate them if you can

EDIT 2: WOOT 1,000 + posts!

2.5" exhaust is too big for a CL, you lose a shit ton of backpressure.

2.5" exhaust... he didn't want a high pitched exhaust and he didn't care about power loss from having a larger pipe diamter. It does sound considerably better than the 2.25" exhaust IMO, but it's up to you for power.




EDIT: For 97blackackCL... I hope you don't consider me whoring this thread, because I am actually giving useful information.
