Default T-Pros Headers from Ebay Install

Going to start today the install of a set of Tpros Headers I got from ebay 92.00 shipped!! and I have to be honest they do look very good all the welds ar nice with good penatration just all in all good set now weather or not the fit worth a damn is another story and I will let you all know.
I know they are here but I will anyway post some install pics just to do it and I am only going to remove the min. amount on this install just because thats just me, this will be done on stands no lift and might I say on gravel not pretty but at least its dry where I am and that is a plus with the weather like it has been here. hope the pics work out.

Thumbs up Done!!

Thank God for mechanics gloves!! trashed and new pair completely but all in all a good time, completly done by my self no help at all in about 13 hours total.
I did have trouble on the cat bolts at the y pipe they were just little ***** of rust (for a 03 not bad though) but no trouble with a 90 and a cut off wheel, the cat brace was the same way i just cut the brace close to the bolts and got them out when I had the cats on the bench then migged up the brace when I was done, drivers side removed the steering u joint from the rack and left it on the shaft and the header went right in, pass side removed the water line manifold and drained the antifreeze there is still a bunch that runs out when you pull that line apart as much as runs out of the radiator but it fit like a glove sounds KILLER and no leaks at all, getting the air out of the coolant system is and has been a task but it is allmost gone still some in there.
a six point 9/16 works well on 14mm and saved my a$$ a few times I had no swivel sockets at all just a u joint and wrenches.
the sound is great for the money it was a hell of a deal!
next will be borla cat back system..

Yes, there is a very nice sound difference with just a header swap. You may get some rasp, though. Let me know. I got a little after I installed my Topspeed headers, but nothing bad at all. However, when I put in my HFCs, it was a rasp fest. After I had a custom true-dual system with the Magnaflow resonated x-pipe after the cats, all is well.

This is the same price I paid and nobody bid on the one that i bid on but this is not the same guy. I will find him again.

I just wait and watch until i find a set that is going to end early in the morning when nobody is watching them.
