Dont waste your money paying someone to install. 3 hours is crazy. it will take an hour at most. 3 bolts hold the muffler in place and the bolt holding it to the cat. Maybe spray a little Wd on the cat bolts ahead of time. you dont need to take the fender off. After you do thefirst side second is a breeze. while you have these off , replace your spark plugs :)

996 mufflers
andolyn replied to andolyn's topic in 996 Series (Carrera, Carrera 4, Carrera 4S, Targa)
Replaced the spark plugs. I should have taken pictures of the old versus the new. The old ones were ready to be replaced. No issues. all boots were good. No cracks or anything. The most rear cylinder on the passenger side and the middle cylinder on the driver side were the most difficult. But it took all of 30 minutes with the mufflers out. Took the car for a test drive. No issues or lights. As for the brake service: Do you attach the power bleeder cap to where the cap on the master cylinder is and allow the pressure to sent the fluid through the system by bleeding in the order the DIY shows? How do you know when you have emptied enough out of each brake? Also the Fister Mode is worth every cent. Just great folks to deal with and It they sound great ! Thanks for any info Robert -

Any recommends on where to get Bosch spark plugs? Which bosch plug is recommended for my 2001 carrera? My local shops do not carry bosch plugs? Im in southern Ca. by Disneyland -
Took off my mufflers this morning. Could not believe how easy it was! Thanks to the previous folks that have done it and posted here. Took maybe 15 minutes a side. Left the tires on. Did not need to remove the bumper either. Had to jack the Rear End up to get them out though. Mailing them monday morning To Fister D for the 996 stage II. Any suggestions of maintaince i might do while their gone? Spark plugs for sure. Already drained the oil and filter. And replaced the Air filter. She's a 2001 with 20K on her.
