Hi,
Going to attempt fitting a new H+S up-pipe and have a go at porting the standard headers at the weekend. My98 UK
I have...........
Exhaust wrap for up-pipe
Set of new exhaust gaskets
Can of WD40
Torch for heating heatshield bolts so hopefully they don't all snap
Does the downpipe have to come off?
Is there anything else I should need?
Any tips from those that have done these mods?
Wont get to read this before Friday now so thanks in advance,
George

Downpipe will have to come off.
Make sure you have some spare bolts, incase the ones linking the sections of the headers together shear.
New gaskets for headers, or some instant gasket.

A decent die grinder
