TX Cat Back system question

I've got a quick question hoping to get some help...thinking of buying a cat back system for my 2005 RX8, my question is... is this a pretty much bolt on application or will i have to buy anything else with the cat back system? is there anything else i have to buy in addition to the catback system? any other upgrade or tuning to the engine i have to do in order to have the catback?

my car is all stock...

thanks,
Juan

Juan, I'll be nice since you are local. Any questions you can think of asking has already been answered over the past 8 years so try and use the site and search for answers. Also, check out the links under the picture in my sig. Go to the gulf regional forum and check out the SARX lounge and we will be glad to help you learn your way.

FYI, you will be the 4th local guy named Juan with an RX-8

No, you do not need anything els. Its just a bolt on!

You will get a better sound out of the car, but no hp gain!FYI

Thanks for info guys... I've heard my friend say there are a few boricias with rotativos around SA, met one long time ago had a 1.8 corrolla with the rotory engine like we do back home, I got to link up with my buddy and make those connections. I've been a avid old school VW bug Guy myself, but gave it up a while ago when I had to sell my 66 bug to buy my mom back home in PR a car. So for that sacrifice I rewarded myself with an RX8... not a bad trade off at all. Although mine is auto I'm loving the steering wheel manual shifting mode!!
