Started installing a set of Pypes LT on GT this morning. So far just have the OEM mid pull and battery discoe'd. Thank god the mid was 1000 times easier than the OEM SN95 one. Lunch next then maybe the starter.

You have to do it through the front of the car. Get a combination of extensions to make about 3 feet.

Oh I got the bastage. Took the motor mount off then pulled the OEM header. Was a snap after that. New LT in place but not snugged up yet. Gotta try and get the MM back in after lunch then the starter.

no it couldnt, I already skipped breakfast lol. Passenger side is done * fingers crossed*, starter back on, mount back, 02 xtender on. Still have to put the battery tray back in but i think that will be last. Next the driver side which is supposed to be easier. cringe. Not looking forward to messing with the steering rack and shaft.
