bigcat and I did the one on his 2005 GT in my driveway on jackstands. It was a breeze.

Sorry, I dont' have a ton of time to give you more tips, but I'm sure others will chime in.

Here is a thread you can browse until others come in and help you. Good luck!

yep, read that thread, as i think most of the tips needed for install are in there. VERY easy install, should take less than an hour if everything is cool to the touch. (dont drive it 30 miles to a buddy's house and immediately start the install.) :p

just dont forget to align your mufflers after the install. they will move!
 
yeah i will be installing CORSA axlebacks with it too! same time. and later that day will be JLT CAI and tune. so it should be quite the brute after that. you think its going to be THAT loud with a PYpes o/r H and Corsa axle backs? i mean i want it louder than stock, but nothing absolutly insaine. i guess to err on the side of too loud can be a good thing tho. ;) haha well the only thing im not sure about is the part about the clamp and how they claim its "weak" and they are getting it welded. is that really necessary?
 
the clamp in the center of the H? mine is only clamped. i have not found a reason to weld it yet. i have had mine installed for about 3 or 4 months now.
 
thats reassuring, good well i think im going to be ordering by the end of the week. just got to get the buget in order..
