Default H Pipe Install

How easy is it to install an O/R H pipe on a 2002 GT? What about MIL eliminators?

Not too hard, just bolt it right up. Although sometimes getting the stock pipe unbolted from the exhaust manifold is a pain lol.

PB Blaster, Extentions, Breaker Bar and your ready to go. Its not too hard but it can be a PITA. As for MILS, you wither need them or you need to get a tuner.

To ge to the passenger side header bolts. Extenions for your rachet. Breaker bar is a long bar that goes onto the extention to put more leverage onto the socket.

You would need 4. There are (4) o2 sensors, just get a tuner, and have them turn them off, this way you can just used your o2's.. The major problem with the MIL's is that a lot of them crap out after a short period of time.

No you would need 2 mils. You only need them for the back O2's. I bought O2's but didn't use them because my one friend who is a mechanic just turns off the code with this code deceting programmer or what ever its called and the check engine light has just came up once so far and ive had the pipe on for about 5 months. So if you know a mechanic I would advise just doing tha it will save you money until you get a tuner.

Only 2 MILS are needed. It would be better just to get a tuner.
