GAAH!!!! STOP!!! Those two pieces are the midpipe! The s-pipe is something different!

http://www.wesellcarparts.com/store/...idproduct=4018 < this is an s-pipe

http://www.wesellcarparts.com/store/...idproduct=4030 < this is a midpipe

http://www.wesellcarparts.com/store/...idproduct=4031 < this is an axleback

If you buy each of these, you will have a complete exhaust. I know, because I purchased all three, and installed them with no extra parts. You're really screwing up the OP and giving him bad information

The back pieces of the midpipe and the s-pipe both have an "s-shaped" bend in them. The s-pipe also is twisted about 30 degrees, where the rear piece of the midpipe is flat. I don't know if you've ever seen it out of the car, but the OEM midpipe is around 7 feet long, and looks sort of like a question mark. Megan just makes 2 pieces (that when assembled are the exact same size as the OEM midpipe) so that they can ship it effectively. The s-pipe has nothing to do with it.

When you buy the megan midpipe and axleback, you'll see you still have your OEM s-pipe left over. You don't have to listen to people who have installed it first hand, you can find this out yourself.

its not hard, easier with a lift and a friend. to get the 02 senosr out of the s-pipe, let the car cool down completely, take the s-pipe out and soak it with WD40 for at least 15-20min, keep spraying it every 5mins and tap the threads with a wrench so it penetrates better, then just wrap your wrench around it, give it a good kick and it'll loosen right up.

you can also use a vice to hold the O2 sensor, then just turn the s-pipe and it comes right out.
