I just purchased a Europipe 2 loud.
I was curious as to what I am in for in regard to the installation.

Thanks

No need. check out the tech tips forums, there's a post by Stephen @ IA that shows you what you need to do.

It only takes about 20 minutes to remove the bumper and it makes the muffler swap much easier. Removing it is not required but IMO it is more sensible because it gives much greater access to everything and there is less chance of scratching the paint

You don't have to do it and with a lift there's no need... otherwise it's very easy to take it off anyways and sure does make it easier for DIY'ers to get their hands in

Without bumber off (I did it three times that way), there is a certain amount
of isometrics and about 25 different length (with swivels) 13 mm wrenches needed. Next time I am removing the bumper.

KING:

4 hours first time (coat your (8) turbo to muffler nuts the night before
with some kind of anti-rust stuff (even WD40 will work).
