i talked to the guy who put my subframe connectors on, he said that justin from vmp can tune my car from his shop, i guess all they have to do is send the info to justin from the dyno and he will send a tune. i guess you have to let justin know about it and somehow pay justin and the dyno rental but at least you wont have to worry about an inexperienced tuner 
. idk if justin is cool to do that or the shop you wanna take it to would do it, but it could be worth asking

spent another 3 hours under the car tongiht.
got both manifolds off- first one took a total of 2 hours, since the **** dipstick wouldnt come out. passenger side took all of 10min. yay?
Longtubes are mostly on- need to tighten a couple more studs. Had to run home to #2, and where I was had no bathroom
going back tomorrow

hey thats what my car looked like for 3 weeks. except I had exhaust and brake calipers.
Good progress. I didnt remove the dipstick when I put on my LT's. The stud closest to the firewall is such a PITA if your car has a brake booster.
Im kinda toying with the idea of swapping over to a hydroboost. But not too sure.

Video!
YouTube - ‪3.8 Mustang Exhaust‬‏
Got it together enough to get out- exhaust isnt together(notice funky tips
), no O2's are hooked in, etc. Went from no rear, and LT's only to that in just under 3 hours.
Special thanks to the GF's dad, Timspony, for spending the time on this... I frustrate the hell outta him sometimes, but he's still there when I really need him! and the GF, Jenzpony, for just sitting watching for the time(knew I picked a good one). and to friend Rob for driving 30min just to bring a drill bit
