I am in New York until Friday morning, so let me know if you are available any time over the weekend, or in the evenings next week.

Thanks!

Is it hard to install the midpipe if limited only to jacks and jackstands? If not, then this definitely frees up my time for the install (otherwise I would have to wait for my friends lift at his shop to be empty).

Also, can you please let me know which tools are necessary for the midpipe install? I want to make sure I have everything.

Thanks!

If your going to do it on jackstands a good socket set would work.

I've got a nice jack, 2 jack stands, a socket set- actually, everything besides a torque wrench and breaker bar.

GizSF, and anyone else that may be interested, please let me know if you are available tomorrow (after 5PM) for an install.

Thanks

I will be available after 5pm tomorrow probably more towards the evening (like 6, 7, or 8).

I have a torque wrench and a breaker bar which you could use. Where do I show up ?

I'm not available this evening.

Monday is best for me.

GizSF, drsifu1, and bythebay, let me know if 6PM in San Bruno works for you on Monday.

I would prefer around 7; 6:30 at the earliest (I get off work @ 5:30 or 6:00 and I have to commute from Mountain View).



All times are GMT -4. The time now is 06:04 PM.
