Angry Learned something new this evening

To replace the exhaust with a BORLA on a Coupe is a piece of cake (except the doughnuts).
BUT on a Roadster is another story.
The Roadsters have all kinds of bracing that HOLDS the exhaust from dropping down. SOOOooo, you must cut the stock pipe in half.
AND...it's stainless which means MOST (in my case ALL) cutters won't cut the pipe.
Air Saw Blades...nope!!!
Hack Saw Blades...Nope!!!
Chain Type Exhaust Pipe Cutter...NOPE!!!

So tomorrow evening I will put it all back together and take it to a muffler shop in the next day or so.
I'm getting too old for this...

RedCross,

I learned that I can't take my XF to Perth cos my panel is in MPH and the use KPH over there. There are other reasons but...

Do you want your sticker back?

use a good old fashioned cut off tool, you know like a mini chop saw. It will cut anything...
