[nisco]

This DIY is for the aftermarket i4 header installation.

Here we go.


1st: Disconnect the battery. The ECU will be reset once you finish the install and hook the battery back up.



2nd: You will need the headers. lol



3rd: Take this ugly thing off by removing the 4 screws.



4th: You should have something like this.



5th: Start removing the 9 nuts that hold the header in place. Its a pain to get to the one nut on the far left. Keep trying. Dont forget, you have 2 nuts at the bottom to remove.
After you finish, you should have this.



6th: You have to disconnect this part.



7th: Unscrew the other end



8th: You schould have this.



9th: This piece should fit right onto the new header. Something like this.



10th: I had trouble with this one. The headers that I got didnt come with the screws for some reason. The screws on the OEM header cant be removed. Only the 2 nuts can be.



1th: SO, I went to Home Depot and bought 2 screws that match the nuts. Look in the pic.



12th: Put the new header in place.



13th: Start puting on the nuts back.



14th: Dont forget the bottom ones.



16th: Should look something like this.


15: Next is putting this piece back.



Connect the battery back.


16th: You are done.



This is really easy to install.
