i just don't want to run into any problems while removing the stock headers and find out i need a special tool or something that i don't have in the middle of the tare down and be stuck like chuck with a car hlaf way through installation.

so all i need for the exhaust mainfolds and the egr is an 8 mm deep well socket ,extensions and a 3/8 ratchet , and a u-joint, and a 27 mm wrench. right ?




the 8mm socket dosent have to be deep well, its actually better if it isnt. The egr is 8mm too i think

like i said, i think the egr may be 7/8 or bigger, other than that you should be fine


Just bring a whole socket set, some flood lights, something to lie on, gloves, a couple different Wrenches, some hex drives (to get the splash shield off) maybe a pillow to lie your head on while your looking up.
