just pick up 2 boxes of sprak plug foulers that have the same thread as your o2 sensor...you need 2 foulers (1 box) for each side. Take one fouler and drill 1/2in...that's so the whole is 1/2 all the way through (you are drilling through the very small hole)...then screw them together...screw your o2 in one side and then screw it back in the o2 bung. here is a link w/ a pic of ebay...it's would help you know what they are. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/02-05-WRX-UPPIPE-DOWNPIPE-EXHAUST-CEL-FIX-PACKAGE_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ34203QQitemZ4569330877QQrdZ1That is what it'll look like screwed together. The cost per box is like 1.50 or so.

If you precats are plugged you'll get some horsepower back but if they are working fine then there won't be any significant increase in power. So just gutting them for the sake of power isn't worth your time, only to save money buying new ones. Better to spend the money putting on headers, you'll be a LOT happier.

I gut mine very easily (withem on the car still) I would say it was worth while...I noticed a hair of improvement...I also had an optimized Y and resonator replaced with staright through...and I had 2.5in pipe from y to the back where it splits again to dual mufflers. I loved the sound and it was a bit more peppy...I think it took me about 2.5 hrs...and I would say it was worth it. Especially since he has 100k plus on the car...they are probably not flowing as well when they did stock.
