My question is, do you have to remove the motor mount to install it?
Is there a trick to the install??

Thanks

 

I didn't have to remove anything. Once I got the stock header and heatshield off through the bottom, I just put the new one in but just reverse order (from bottom up). I have J's btw, so don't know how different the piping and design is. It's best to do it with 2 persons. It might take some wiggling and forcing. And you might slightly scratch it but..it saves time from removing motor mounts.

 

Thanks for the reply but, this Invidia header is being a PIA I have instaled a boat load of headers for this car but, this one

 

Make sure to go in thru the bottom of the car. This will save damage to the valve cover and other scratches. Put a few CLEAN shop towels between any metal surfaces that might scratch.

 

Thank you but, I have done header installs before on the car. My question refers too the Invidia header specifically and no other just that header.
I know someone has installed this header please chime in.

 

I'm guessing I am the first on the block to install this Invidia header

 

header install FTL!!!!! Im sorry I cant help. my only advice would to use a lift or get the car very very high on jackstands..... but since you have done them before you already know this..


good luck. report back your impressions... Im still on the fence about this header. I believe it makes No power.......

 

To boldly go where no man has gone before...

 

Why don't you just get under the car and if it doesn't fit, spend the extra 5 minutes and unbolt the motor mount?

 

The mount takes more than 5 min. I am asking a constructive question not to be answered by the obvious.

This question is amid at someone who has had experience with this brand of header install.
