Got the car back from the 42DD DP install.......
and I couldn't be more pleased. Completely changed the exhaust tone to a deeper, more gutteral sound. You now hear much more of what the engine/turbo are doing. It now picks up from a dead stop much easier without any stumble or delay as well as revving up much quicker. I find myself backing off the throttle because I'm not used to the quickness of the surge under boost. It feels great.
I've put on about 90 miles this afternoon with the high-flow cat without any O2 adapter and no CEL light. Lets see if this continues to hold.

5 hours @ $60/hr = $300......
plus a couple of hangers, SS pipe, and tax came out to be $320 total. And they did a great job. No resonances at any RPM that I can detect. I told them to make sure of this and they did by placing the hangers in strategic locations to keep the DP from coming in contact with any under-chassis members. They fashioned a 3" SS pipe (I supplied the flange from 42DD) to mate with my 2.75" catback and they welded it up nice and tight. I am very happy with the labor.
