Default Anyone with Jet Hot headers

Just got my Jet Hot's in and the install date for me and my buddy to do them is set for thursday. Its for an 01 WS6. Was wondering if anyone who has them has any suggestions for the install, anything that may make life better that I should know before I start (anything specific to remove to make them slide in ez'er). Also, did anyone have to use O2 extensions for theirs? Thanks for the help!

Do a search. A header install is a header install. I used extensions on mine.

THEY EASY AS FAR A HEADDER INSTALLS GO i had to knotch my k member because it taped it a bit.. they biggest advice i can give is remove the passnger coilpack before tring to get to the header bolts it makes life much easier also you might wanna have an exhaust shop loosen your cat bolts because their next to impossible to do at home

me too...i just grinded on the k member a little and did a lil forcing if your loosing the cats just cut the bolts off, dont bother removing the passanger side coil packs, mine header slid right in with them onif you slide them in from under the car, if ya disconnect the temp sensor on the driverside of the block it makes the job easier but dont forget to plug it back in. good luck

JetHots are not very hard to get in, but take your time with the y-pipe and make sure that you fit it together properly and get it tucked up like it should be. also buy 2 or 3 (can't remember) band-clamps, they don't completely seal the exhaust but are better than the u-bolts.
