Just ordered some BBK Ceramic headers and catted X pipes. Has anybody dealt with this install before? What should i expect? Or should i do it professionally?

headers on your car is a much easier install then on the new edges, take your time and you should be able to so it your self, an extra set of hands always helps to

The headers were pretty easy to install. I'd do it yourself.

A good socket set. Some wrenches. Screwdriver to disconnect the battery (I think I used a screwdriver). Various extensions to get to the tough SOB bolts that bolt the exhaust manifold to the engine. PATIENCE. And most importantly, a friend to help.

You're also gonna need a jack, some jackstands, and I used a 4x4 piece of wood to jack up the engine. My jack didn't raise the engine enough, so I used the block of wood. Space is limited. I disconnected some kinda bar that went from one side to the other (I can't remember the name of the damn thing) i disconnected it so it would be easier to slide the headers into place. It was just 4 bolts, max. It made the job a lot easier.
