49356, Just got my Greddy Evo
Posted by scirio, Apr-19-03 02:37 AM
Can install this myself, I think I could but I have no way to lift the car and is there any type of gasket material that should accompany the steel brackets that ajoin (<spelling?) each section of the piping? If I dont install it myself how muh would it run to GET it installed elsewhere.

My dad installed mine, and I think he used some kind of liquid gasket, or something like that...it has worked great, no leaks...I'll ask him what he used...

You should really install it yourself.
Heres what you need:

4 jack stands (2 at the very least)
1 3ton jack
Basic Socket/Rachet set

An O2 sensor socket
Liquid Gasket material or Gasket material

Good luck :thumbsup

I took my APEXI WS to Midas and they installed it for $42 (after taxes) and they provided all the gaskets since the exhaust was used and didn't have them. On my last car, I did it myself but I had to use a torch to heat the CAT bolts to get them off. IMO $42 is worth the time and the headache!

You should do it yourself - all you need is what was listed above ^^^^. You might as well buy those things now b/c if you plan on doing any amount of work to your car your going to need them later anyway. Oh, I'm assuming you don't have an air gun either, so have something ready to use as a breaker bar. If your exhaust has been on there for any length of time, it'll be tough to get off with 6 point sockets. Have fun.
