My friend's wife gets home from a kid's birthday party at 3:30pm today, at which point he can swap out parenting duties. He then has to drive 45 minutes to my house. Here we will swap out his X-pipe for my gerimander catalytic pipes, and then make it to the emissions place 15 minutes down the road, and complete an emissions test before 5pm. Can it be done?

No the wife will get home late.
But it could be done...just need to be on top of your game. Jacks out, stands out, tools needed out. Be careful, 45min drive and those pipes will be hot.

Are air tools or electric impact being used? Long tubes or Shorties I can't solve this with so many undefined variables! !

What makes "parenting duties" and an exhaust swap mutually exclusive? I'd have loaded up the kids and taken them with me. Bill it as either "father-bonding time" or an educational opportunity!
****! Mission aborted. He had to turn back, stuck in a classic Atlanta traffic jamb. Longtube headers, we have plenty of air tools.

**** with longtubes it should be no problem. Shorter, lighter pieces to deal with, plus no need to remove O2's to get to the bolts or swap over, plus all the bolts being right there under the floorboards and not halfway up the firewall.
Only problem I see is that depending on brand of longtubes, some mid-pipes aren't interchangeable. Mac to BBK, etc.

This is what i was thinking.
My cat pipe is all flexitube with the 2 forward cats from a 93' stang. I could bend it to fit on a Honda if I had to. I made it out of flexitube so that it would go on fast, and fit any stang.
