Headers/up-pipe arrived today!
I was sitting around waiting for UPS to show up and finally they got here with my headers at 5pm.
Ok so I figured headers and uppipe would only take an hour to install.
OMG was I wrong.
I got under the car and pulled off the engine cover, only to realize how much this was going to suck.
first off there is a seperate heat shield over each section of the headers and uppipe.
Then I looked up at the turbo, only to see how hidden the uppipe actually is.
So I decided I'm gonna wait till I have a good 6 hours to devote to this just to be safe.
Has anyone installed their own uppipe??
any tips on makin the job easier?
