I installed Texas Speed LTHs, a task I’d rather not preform twice. Paired with the roush H pipe resonator delete I had on previously, it sounds pretty darn good. Now I have emissions to worry about in October .. I would upload a video but I don’t know how

How long did it take from start to finish on the install? Problems with the studs?

From start to final clean up of my garage it took me about 3 days. I’m not ashamed to admit because I wasn’t rushing. I bought the headers as something to do during my layoffs, other than the fact that I’ve been wanting to do it, so I milked it for time on my tools and drinking beer.

As for studs, have both a e8 socket and ratcheting flex e8 wrench. Flex head ratcheting 15 mm and stubby 15mm are also helpful. Extensions and swivel socket adapters are a must.

If you have a 2018, on the passenger side you may have to loosen up the ac compressor as some tubing gets in the way, I removed most of the studs on the passenger side. The passenger side is a big pain, not for the faint hearted or short tempered.
The driver side was a BREEZE in comparison, took about 1.5 hours. I removed the two studs to the rear.
The job isn’t easy, so if you have to pass emissions like I do, think about it first. I think I have a few “guys” for inspection but I’m going to explore other avenues just to see if I can avoid relying on anything like that.
