So i just ordered:
Hotchkis sways front and rear
Injen Intake
Alphawerks Headers
CC s-pipe
28" Magnaflow resonator/muffler

Is there anything i shud pay attention to or w.e. when installing any of these things... like how difficult are they to install? Also, if anyone knows of or has any installation directions / posts that would help me install these that would be great.... Finally, is there anyone out there who has any of these parts on their tc and has anything to say about how they pair soundwise with the trd exhaust?

 

when u install the intake make sure to really follow the instructions and wrap the bottom piece with a shirt when u put it through. you'll know what i mean when u get to it. your going to have some rasp with all of that stuff but it shouldn't be bad

 

I see different projects-

1) Intake install, 1-2 hours by yourself if you're handy.

2) Header/s-pipe install, about 3 hours if you're drilling antifoulers. The stock sensors are hard to get off from the factory. Be sure the motor's cool or keep a squirt bottle with icewater.

3) Swaybar day.
4) Sit-in-a-muffler-shop-while-they-weld day.

Some of these can be combined if you don't work.

 

I think you're being overly generous by your times, but then again he's sixteen so i doubt he's back in class with all the other teeny boppers right now so yeah he's probably got all day, ummm butyeah

1)when you're installing the header you're going to want to unbolt your oil dipstick because it'll make it impossible to put the header on with it still attached, after reattaching SLIGHTLY bend it so it's not always rubbing against the header.

2)Next thing, when you're installing the intake throw out that regular nut they give you for the bracket and go to lowes/home depot and buy a lock nut so that it doesn't vibrate off.

3) Buy a torque dampener to keep from snapping your intake brackets

4) remember to NOT use jackstands when intalling the sway bars, you're supposed to have tension on them so go buy some ramps, make some or maybe you're lucky and know a neighbor with a hydraulic lift

5) Just be prepared for the front sway bar to be EXTREMELY agrivating

That's all, now mod on young grasshopper
