ugh... how did you guys manage getting the top bolt off the downpipe on the part connecting to the turbo.

been out here for 30 mins now and was able to loosen it but cant get that ****** off.

thanks

better still, i got the top bolt off on the dp-turbo connection, now cant seem to get the top bolt off the bottom section.

now... how did you guys get the top bolt off the back of the dp?

 

I know it is a wickede pain in the ass and is extremely frustrating, or it was for me, I just used like a foots worth of extensions and a swivel. I pushed down a little on the downpipe for a little extra room after you disconect it from the manifold, once you jsut get it loose, it will be a lot easier

 

slow is fast.

 

yeah im taking it easy, dont want to snap a bolt.

well i got like lydon said, 3543658 ft. of extensions and i am getting on the bolt, its just a little tight so i sprayed some seep creep on it and going to give it another yank in a few

 

Yea I sprayed a little wd-40, but I wound up waiting like 25 min, going back and forth between css.net nd my car looking for solutions

 

i found the top bolt on the bottom of the DP easy if you jsut remove the catback from the hangers. pretty much just falls down.

 

There is a CIA dp installation how to with pictures (in this section)...do a search and you will see how it can be done...

 

i just had my stock exhaust cut off, so as soon as i got the 4 bolts off where the turbo and downpipe connect it just fell off. lol! i had all my Hahn parts ready to go on.

 

well everything worked out, just had to use a bunch of extensions to get off those tough to reach bolts.

the downpipe sounds awesome, wish i could have went catless, but dont feel like having to deal with switching things in and out come renewing my sticker time. either way hahn makes a pretty downpipe.
