I've just spent a fortune(a ***** lot) on getting S/S headers fitted so hopefully that side has been sortedPhil 997 said:It can be dont DIY mate but the bolts will be rusty and you will lose knuckle skin and be swearing all to save a couple of hundred quid. :thumb:

I am only doing silencers. One side is done, one to go. 4.5hrs so far. The location of some bolts is ridiculous and they are of course rusty and round.
I ended up cutting the exhaust off the hangers, drilling out the studs and bolting the bracket back on before fitting the silencer back to the bracket with the nuts on top. Why Porsche bolt them the other way is a mystery to me.
Going to pick up a reciprocating saw on my way home tomorrow. I recon another 2-3 hours should see it done.
Working on a lift would make it a lot easier than rolling around on the floor!
If you have a good local indy I recon it should be half a day for them.
respect to you mate rolling around on the floor for 7 hours in this weather :worship: sod that for a game, Iced coffee while someone else does it is my sort of day :grin: :grin: :thumb:
Thanks, I'm in the process of canceling the order I made and then reorder as lamda sensors can't be ordered separately.PHS said:I've posted this before, but the issue I had (or rather the garage had) was getting the O2 sensors off, so much so that they had to leave them and buy new ones.
You can grind and cut everything else, but if you want to retain the O2 sensors then that's a different story.
BTW - 200 cell cats and mild sport boxes sound superb :thumbs:
