I just ordered a flex turbo xs up pipe and an erz rACING turbo back. what are some of the major install or other issues i need to be prepared for? thanks

 

I am installing a turbo back exhaust with a flex up pipe soon. what do i need to be prepared for? please help.

 

Helpfull hints:

Soak the bolts with wd-40, that will help loosen them up

You need an o2 sensor remover

Either modify your existing heatshield or buy an aftermarket one. The stock heatshield wont fit bigger downpipes

Having a friend help will make things easier, as will a lift! Turboback and gutting the stock uppipe took a Friday and Saturday for me and a friend to finish. I would give yourself a day or two just in case you hit any snags. scoobymods.com has install writeups

good luck!

 

I have heard to remove and install an up pipe i will need to lift the passenger side of the engine slightly. Is this needed? w

 

Yes you need to lift the passenger side to slide the upppipe out the bottom with the passenger side exhaust manifold and mid pipe already removed.
