I will be installing them soon however i am installing a BMR k-member at the same time so I am hoping it will be a little easier once I remove the factory k-member. I was told it is time consuming to do but really isn't to had.

 

I'm looking forward to it, some tips that I've come across is to use 8mm bolts instead of studs, copper coat the gaskets. I'm thankful I have access to a lift and air tools lol

It's easier to support the engine and remove the motor mounts completely for the install. Having access to a lift will make things much easier. I installed mine in my driveway with the car up on jack stands. The install wasn't difficult, just time consuming.

 

Removing the motor mounts definitely makes it easier; just do one side at a time, though, after loosening both sides of the mount stud/bolt.
I used OEM gaskets, dry, and have no issues after 2 years. For fasteners, I used, where possible, the stock studs and self-locking nuts. Some positions it made more sense to use bolts instead.

 

Suspend motor, and take out mounts. Unhook steering shafts. Put in new pipes. It took longer to do headers than putting on a supercharger.

 

With lift and air tools it took me about 3 1/2 hours. Like it was stated before, only remove one motor mount at a time. My exhaust became much louder fyi.... but I also put on a off-road H pipe.
Oh yeah, don't forget to re-torque your bolts after some heat cycles. Mine became pretty loose after some driving.

 

Use the stock studs (I had to shorten three of my top drivers side ones). Completely remove the passenger side motor mount, leave the drivers side alone. Reuse the OEM gaskets with a skim of hi-temp copper RTV. That's what worked for my JBAs and I didn't have any problems at all.
