Default H-Pipe Install

How long does it take to remove the stock midpipe and put the a new H-Pipe in? This is on a lift, btw.

Also, how much longer to put LTs on, too?

not sure about the lt's, but the pipe took me 20 minutes on a lift. make sure you have the right tools. you'll need an extension to get at the bolts on the headers. if i remember correct the bolts are 9mm, but its been so long.

First time, never having done it before the connections for the 02 sensors took extremely long to reach... This was on a lift. Second time, on jack stands... much quicker. (but much harder)

When I did my headers.... on jack stands... The part about removing the H pipe/cats took about 15 minutes max. It was so easy and fast that it gave me a false sense of calm about the whole headers project... Wow I found out the truth pretty quick.

But yes, that first part was really easy.
