I have the pypes and I like it. The first time I put it on it was a bit difficult and I took my time and suprisingly didnt have any leaks. The fitment was pretty good with mine but I have heard some horror stories. The manifold bolts are a pain and you will need extensions and a swivel. The passenger side top O2 sensor is pretty difficult to get to. I couldnt fit my hand up there to disconnect it. I took out the battery box which took about 3 mins and that made it very easy. The second time I put it on took me about 25 mins and I had to get it welded the leaks were really bad from the clamps bending the pipe on the first install. I wouldnt run anything less than a Pypes Mid muffler because it is obnoxiously loud. I had a O/R H and slp lm's for 2 days. Then I added some resonators and it sounds great. Hope this helps
I had to do the same thing with the battery box. And you will need extentions and a swivel. Once the cats are gone its a breeze to put the O/R pipe on. I guess fitment varies from pipe to pipe because there was NO WAY mine was not going to leak.
