How long did it take Kev? Hey take a vid of your car with the open exhaust before you install the y-pipe.

I took us 9 hours total. We also bled to coolant lines and had to splice the passenger side O2 sensor. I will give cliff notes later. We got the y pipe from fed ex today and installed it. Started it up and IT IS LOUDDDD. I am waiting on my front bumper to get back from paint and once this happens i can make a nice video, but for right now, I need to relax. Im bruised, battered and broken. EVERY muscle in my body is in pain, my knuckles are split open, and I am just wore out. But damn, we honestly had alot of fun doing it! I have $20k in tools alone so i definitely had all the right equipment to do the job. As for someone who doesnt have very many tools, good luck. I used breaker bars, pry bars, pneumatics, extensions, sockets, ratchets, wrenches....list goes on and on. Had to take out ALL the coolant lines that wrap around the engine to gain access to the bolts. Had to take out the coolant resevoir, and power steering reservoir, and release the belt tension unbolt the AC compressor. I def understand why most shops charge around $500 for this!

^So that's why I've read that headers are not worth it on these cars...Looking forward to hearing the finished product.
