The easiest and smartest way would be to not put them on.

I have to agree here. Unless you have some kind of strict emissions testing that negates the use of long tubes. For the pain and hassel of the install, you might as well do the long tubes. They're better in every way.

The easiest way to install them is on a lift....seriously! They are an absolute pita to do on jackstands. There is no easy way. Some drop the k-member, jack the engine, etc. and some don't.
