Default Exhaust dilema

Hi,
Need abit of advice with my exhaust system on my 05sti, has anybody dealt with unique exhausts from stafford.there a powerflow specialist.
Options are to go there and get a fitted option or buy a ninja 2 catback from scoobyworld and fit it myself.
Thanks pete

If I go with the ninja I will be using floor ramps.do u reckon it would still be easy, what happens with the bolts and are theyeasily replaced?
Do u know if theres much difference in sound and possible power output?
Thanks

Default Bolts

On older cars the bolts can be pretty rotten and shear. Def soak the existing bolts in WD40 the night before.

If it's cat back you'll have it swapped out in an hour easy just 2 days and 1 day before plaster all the bolts on the joints with wd40 will all come off nice and easy then

Update- I ordered the ninja 2 catback package from scoobyworld.
Fitted it on my own yesterday, the spring bolts were a pain even after an overnight soaking but got there in the end.
Car sounds great reale happy with the results.so much better than the exhaust thats come off
Now ready for a next job :-)
Cheers for the help
