I am installing the Super comp's and thought I better ask for some advice before I started.

If you have a dual cat 95, HAVE FUN!!!! My advice is to take your time with the install. It's really not that hard, it just takes a lot of time. It took me 20 hours I believe. Just dont get frustrated and keep truckin' with the install and you'll be rewarded in the end.

Its a pretty straight forward install. If it *might* make things easier by taking something off, do it. Oil filter, steering knuckle, motormount bolts, etc...

Piece of cake!

patience, patience, patience

it is not that hard of a job, it is just time consuming. despite what you might read from other posts, get a good jack, a good set of jackstands and get your car way up in the air. then jack up the engine. some say they have done it without having to jack up the motor, but i have done this twice now, and trust me, just get the right tools and jackup the motor. i will make installing the headers easier, and might prevent you from scratching up your pretty jet-hot coating (if ya got that!) let me know if you have anymore questions
