Sacramento Uppipe Install

Anyone wanna help me do my DP and UP install? Might be quicker with someone who's done it before. Sacramento area heads, let me know.

Install party! Lol, I still got a gutted/polished stocker sittin' in the closet been waiting for months to be installed. Nowhere to work on it....
I'd be down for helping out if things work out so that I could get away for a few hours...

Wait... You have no tools and no garage, and you wanna do an uppipe install? Personally, I think that's a poor idea, as I've been there and done that--not fun. Take it to a professional (Paul) and have him do it right if you can afford it.

That is absolutely up to you. My main intent was that you don't seem to have the resources (tools, garage, cold beer) necessary to ease the project, and doing an UP in a garage is still a pain, much less doing it in the driveway/street/parkinglot/etc. Also, it's nice to have a professional who stands behind their work doing an PITA job that may result in exhaust leaks (ask me how I know). But please remember, this is totally my opinion--just trying to help.

Oh, one more thing-- Spray everything with PB blaster, get a box of rubber globes, and GO SLOW when loosening the nuts from the studs. Don't force anything.

Best of luck with your install
