xpipe question

how hard is it to install an xpipe by yourself? i had a buddy try it once and he had a hard time with one of the bolts. if you guys had any input or pointers for me that would be great.

If you have any mech skills, you will be ok. Just make sure you have the proper tools..

PB Blaster, 2' extension, a swivel, a 15mm deep socket, and a 12 pack of the brew of your choice.

The night before your install, soak the bolts with the PB Blaster and then spray them again before you start.

Use air tools if possible. Use heat only if nessecary.

+1 the brew of your choice, though now I can have a mid-pipe swap done in probably 30 minutes. The first time is the hardest, after that it is easy as pie.
