Went to install my new cat-back exhaust from Tasca last night. Once I'd re-rounded the various connections that had gotten bent in shipment, I had a hell of a time getting clamps onto the three smaller connections. As darkness approached, I retreated into the house to self-medicate with pizza.

This morning, I dug out some of the extra clamps from prior exhaust installations, and found I had remembered correctly: 3 R56 clamps and 1 R58 is the correct set, not 3 R51 and 1 R58. Ooops. Thanks, Volvo.

Lesson: inspect all parts carefully to insure you have all the correct pieces. Even Sven has off days.
