Ordered PPE headers. I've done a couple sets in the past on other cars. Any reason I shouldn't attempt to do this on my own in my garage? I don't have a lift but I'm not afraid of anything reading through the instructions. Thoughts?

I'd have no problem paying if there was a reputable shop in the area that doesn't charge an arm and a leg.

I'm pretty sure you can do it without a vehicle lift. Its going to be a tedious job....

I paid $650 at JM Lexus in Miami.

I'd do it, just follow the sikky install diagram and it will be slightly modified by not using a lift (jack stand instead of what they use to support engine, I'd honestly just support it with a engine hoist with a chain)

I did the install myself in my garage. I have a lift though so that doesn't really count.

I've done the header install on multiple ISFs and I would not want to do it without a lift. It can be done but it would be a real pain trying to work around jack stands, a jack to hold/adjust the motor and the subframe that would be hanging down. If your going to attempt it I would get some really big jack stands and jack all four corners up very high. Even then it is not going to be fun.

I would have done my header install on jack stands because I don't have access to a lift. However, I ended up buying my headers from a shop that also does the install, so I figured, I save myself the trouble. It did cost a little more, but these guys did a good job with the install and they guaranteed their work because they've done a few headers installations for the ISF.

It looks like a pain to do this install without a lift though.

I did PPEs with just axles stands for the car and scissor/trolley jack for engine/exhaust

Its no 5-minute job but neither is it that hard if youve done other cars
