I Need A Step By Step Instruction On How To Install A Downpipe
Could someone run down the process of installing a downpipe in a easy to understand order,from start to finish?
|
nevermind,i just found instructions on how to install downpipe.
|
Take off stock one and put on new one...... :jerkit: its like 6 bolts....if that
|
6 bolts + all the other misc stuff like the intake piping etc. Think it took me a few hours, especially if the6 bolts are stuck on or if you need to take off the studs
|
Get you some PB Blaster. I didn't snap a single stud.
|
pics of install if any?

I would soak the area with PB blaster before going after them. People have been able to do the removal under the car in the driveway. My mechanic did mine and glad he did. Rather him bust the knuckles than me! :D here are pics on scuderia's website. http://www.scuderiaciriani.com/rx7/downpipe.html |

IIRC, it took me about 4 hours including removing the necessary shields, the O2 sensor, and the pre-cat. The DP installation was easy since I used the HKS unit which fit very well. I re-used the original gaskets and had no problems.

IMO if the car has over 75K miles and the stock dp has never come off then have someone else do unless you really want a headache. It is an easy job but can get real ugly real fast.
