Installing TP gotta prepare...

**giacb6usp** · 03-27-2008 04:11 PM

Since my PSI TP is on its way to my door, I need to prepare tools for installing process. From what I seen so far, I need tools for O2 sensors F/R, 3 bolts on turbo outlet, 2 connects testpipe to downpipe. Does anyone can tell me what those sizes are, and anything else I need such as extensions and such. Any info greatly appreciated.!!

Well from what I read, most people that did the TP install said their bolt were rusted on and they had to use a torch. I would do the TP install, but using a torch that close to the engine kinda scares me.

No need for the torch just get some PB blaster.

PB Blaster is not always guaranteed.

Shit sucks! Its a bitch to get to the bolts around the cat. Make sure you have some ratchet extensions, swivel head ratchet wrenches help, you'll also need an allen to take the 3 drive shaft cover bolts off, makes it alot easier to get in there

exactly. and pb blaster worked for me on one bolt.
i also had a friend help me, which was a world of help.
1 guy under, 1 guy above (<<kinda sounds gay), holding each side of the screw and bolt.
i'm sure it would have been pretty hard doing it alone.
