Doesnt CA have stiff rules for no cats and modding an exhaust?
You will need a tune for the headers, don't use the car without the tune, it will run dangerously lean. The tune looks after the cel for no cats.
Get some SMALL socket wrenches. I believe the nuts are 11mm?? I hope you have a set of instructions? I can send u a copy.
Mark the steering column with a white marker before you disconnect it so you put it back together in the same orientation.
Get a couple friends to help. It's a tedious job in small, tight places. 3 guys makes it go by way faster.
I'd suggest an X pipe on the mids, the exhaust sound is really loud and obnoxious without one. I have two left that weld right onto the MHP mids. I can send you vids and pics if u want.
Get some new MB exhaust gaskets before u start.

Dealerships can easily see Long Tube Headers, so you can get easily turned down for warranty claims or they can cancel your warranty altogether. Each dealership is different. couldn't hurt to ask them before you mod..
