Nothing available online, but feel free to call the shop and someone can walk you though it, it's not real complicated.

I just installed mine today. Failures at zpi dont ship the correct bolts for the s-pipe were it connectd to the midpipe. Also they fail to provid e correct spring loaded bolts for where it connectts to the header.. there solution is to bolt the s-pipe directly to the header without being able to do it the correct way. forcing you to not use the donut gasket corrctly. but it works. If zpi could provide what they say they do it would take 15 minutes to install.. Also its very low and expect to crush it on the first time you botton out. Other wise great product.. Im not a hater but to pay 225.00 for a 5 dollar piece of steel you would expect more.I am happy with it.

The lowest part of the car is the cross member for the engine, The s-pipe shouldn't be in danger of dragging, the cross member should.

yeah i agree 225.00 is a little much, but its certainly worth more than 5 bucks.

Maybe varience between the stock and aftermarket headers? I've not spent much time under the N/A cars at the shop, but all the turbo ones don't look like they have any clearance issues, and almost all of them have s-techs on them..
