I just received my y pipe and I was looking to install it myself tomorrow and was looking for any tips or secrets. Like will I have to raise the front and rear at the same time, or can I get away with just raising the rear? Should I put the front on ramps and lift the rear? I do have to get to work in the afternoon so I will only have a couple hours will this be enough time? What's the average time frame for a fairly competent person? Any info would be appreciated, and sorry for all the questions.

 

a. I would prefer to have the entire car on jack stands.
b. Spray hardware (nuts and bolts) with penetrating fluid. Let it sit for 20 minutes.

 

this shouldnt take more than ~30mins. thats really easy. just jack the front and you should be fine.

 

sweet thanks guys

 

I wish test pipes are as easy as this.

 

yeah I had those installed!

 

What TP and YP are you running? I have the APS 2.5" TP and thinking of getting a YP. Let me know how you like please.

 

well I have Xerd tp non res and topspeed y-pipe I have not had time to install them but I will on Friday which is tomorrow already so we will see. I let you know how it goes.

 

all done! I took a quick spin around the block and the rasp makes a little presence but it's okay it was already there with just the tps'. It seems a little deeper and I don't know maybe it's all in my head but it seems to pull a little harder. I'm happy though and it was very easy no more than 40 minutes by myself. I used a floor jack to hold the y-pipe up while I put in the nuts and bolts to line everything up.
