San Antonio- midpipe install help!
Ordered the RP resonated midpipe and will probably get it in soon... unfortunately I basically have no tools, which leaves me unable to install it myself...
Anyone got a place and tools that can help me out? Can do any other installs etc if someone else needs it or just make a small meet or w/e.

why don't you just buy some tools. if you wanna go the cheap route:
12mm socket and ratchet (the two brackets underneath exhaust)
2 14mm wrenches (bolts and nuts holding cat)
adjustable wrench (o2 sensor)
and a flat head screw driver (use to shimmy off exhaust donut gasket)
i'm sure you can find those pretty cheap somewhere.

I would like to help but am probably lacking in the tool dept. And I would probably hurt more than help.
Try Harbor Tools or Big Lots.......they have stuff cheap.

my advice to you would be to go ahead and buy the tools and jack stands yourself. i bet if you bought them this would not be the only time you would use them. plus this really isnt a 2 person job. from my experience, two people under the car for something small like this you just seem to get in each others way.
once the car is cool, it will probably take you about an hour

or you could have someone who is military take you on base to do it. Not sure about lackland but I know randolph afb has an entire shop with like 10 lifts and all the tools you need plus there are always people there who can help if you need it. Theres a small charge to use lift and tools but I think its like $10 or less total

got my friend with an FC to help. 2 bolts were being absolute pains in the *** though so he's bringing over some jack stands tomorrow. Hopefully we can get at them with a better angle (used ramps today). In other news, it's a damn shame we cant drive around with open headers... I could get used to the sound of that.

You know those 2 bolts are jus wedge into place right? My friend made the dumbass mistake of trying to get'em off and snapping the them off. Then I had to pay like $8 each at the dealer to make it work. What exhaust do you have? I saw you at school the other week and ur outlets look huge.
