Default Installing HKS exhaust

How long did it take you guys to install your HKS exhaust? Trying to figure out how much time I will need. Thanks!

it all depends on your mechanics Skills, it should take you no more than 2 hours with all your hardware and tools!

Me and my buddy managed to do it in about 30~45 minutes on a ramp pictured below.
Just read the posts on how-to and gather all the tools you need.
Make sure you have those silicone sprays. It'll make your life way easier.
Good luck

55 minutes.

make sure you have some lubricant like a WD-40 or something, right size sockets and wrenches, cheater bar for breaking the bolts on the cat, and a good jack/jackstands.


oh yea make sure you line up the mufflers where they're supposed to be before you tighten the bolts. i thought they could only line up one way once it was tightened, but i was wrong. there is some freeplay there
