Fswerks exhaust install?
Hey guys,
My exhaust from fswerks should be arriving tomorrow. I have a decent amount of car knowledge. I was wondering how hard it is to install exhaust. I can't find any guides online for my 2009 focus. Are there any guides? And how hard is it to do/what tools do you need? |

You need a hack saw, some penetrating lub, assortment of wrenches and gloves, jack and jack stands and or a lift

sawsall helps alot. if i remember correctly you have to cut in 2 places. but it's a really easy install. don't forget to change your gaskets!

If you have access to a lift your ease of installation just increased by 500%.
I have done 2 front to rear exhausts on cars in my garage on jackstands. It's the biggest nightmare ever and for the next few days after your neck and back hurt like hell! |

Its rather simple like everyone else has said. I just installed the stealth exhaust on mine last weekend. Im still waiting though to add the header, since i bought it from someone here, but it didnt have the gaskets and bolts so i just need to go pick some replacements up.

Also when you do cut it. Make sure you cut it at a place where it can be re welded. just for resale or reuse purposes.

I used a saws-all and 2 jack stands and it sucked but I managed in a few hours.
I do believe the fswerks piece comes with instructions
