Hey everyone... I've been reading around and notice some people were writing about the Invidia Cat back not being able to bolt up to the stock Cat.... Is this true? I'm going to get my exhaust from UPS next monday and I don't want to take the stock one off without being prepared. Will it, or will it not bolt directly to the stock Cat? Also, whats the easiest way to take the badges off the trunk of the STI. Thinking of removing everything except for the STI badge. Thanks alot y'all...

Hey, I have not done exhaust work yet, but the answer to your debadging question is to use dental floss, hair dryer, WD-40 and your fav wax. Just heat the badges up a bit, use the dental floss to get behind the letters and work them off, I found that wd40 works very well for helping to remove the glue left on the trunk. Use your fingers and fingernails to work the glue off as well. Others have used 3M adhesive remover, I tried that to but it didn't work as well as wd40. I left the STi badge on, its looks very clean.
