Just wondering if anyone has any helpful tips on installing the stillen y-pipe. Anything i should be aware of, or expect a hard time with anything? Thanks for the help

 

Take it to a ricer shop and let someone else do it!

But if you can do it your self use air tools!!!!!

 

UMD_MaxSE posted info on a bunch of tools that are needed so look for it in here.

My tip: make sure you have the right tools and use WD-40 on the nuts before proceeding.

 

I am planning on doing the install myself with another local maxima owner once we get our pipes. From what I have read and checked out you need:

Ratchet
13 mm socket
14 mm deep socket
Universal joint
6" extension
22mm wrench for O2 sensors
Anti-Sieze compound
WD-40/Liquid Wrench type substance
Floor jack and jack stands (or ramps)

anyone got anymore to add?

The hardest part is probably getting to the bolts on the manifolds. Some of them are in a tough spot from what I can see. But, the universal joint and extension should help there.

 

thanks, i figured it was going to be a *****. My buddy works in a gas station and he is a mechanic so i am going to have him do it for me. I am going to watch and be oral support. haha. thanks guys

 

Excellent decision.

 

"Oral Support"? I wish my girl would "Oral Support" me more often!
