Info:
OK this is a pretty easy DIY, i did it by myself but id recommend gettin a mates help because some of the bolts r very tight and doin shit by yourself can be just dam boring, Good luck!
Step 1:
Jack ur car up approprately. I took off my front bar and drove onto some ramps to do my header, my car is very low and i dont trust laying under my car just on a jack so this is what it looked like. Dont foget to let ur car cool a lil bit because its quite hard to do when its hot.
Step 2:
Check your parts, make sure ur header has the right pieces and gaskets etc
Step 3:
Make 2pcs one get some sealant, do up the studs with 2 locked nuts, then chuck ur nuts on and do all up. make sure u dont skimp on the manifold sealant also.
Step 4:
Ok now its time to get into it, remove the 12mm bolts holding on your exhaust manifold head sheild. This is easy, just undo the bolts, i think there is about 4.
Step 5:
Remove the 02 sensor. This thing is a bitch, took me like 10mins to figure out how to tak it apart without breaking it.
be careful they r only clips.
still going...................
