H-Pipe Install

stage2roush2002 · 02-04-2007, 07:57 PM

I was wondering how hard it is to change out a h-pipe. I want to change my catted to an offroad.

7 out of 8 bolts are cake, it's that darned 8th that will have you wishing you never thought about changing it. Really it isn't bad, but the passenger side lower manifold nut is usually trouble. It's a tough angle, but with enough frustration and a good set of wobblies you'll get it off.

Can I just use simple hand tools?

Longtubes, catted h-pipe, spintech mufflers

I want to change my catted out for an offroad h-pipe that has exhaust cut outs.

then it is as easy as unbolting the pipe and putting the new h-pip in.

if you ask me i think its retard proof. it should be a hella of a lot easier then a regular mid pipe
