PBblaster and PATIENCE for the 02 sensors. rent the 02 socket from autozone if you don't have one, and return it when you're done.

No air tools needed. Patience is the main theing you'll need though... :D
 
follow corksport's instructions and the O2 is easy to get off. I used pb blaster instead tho
 
I see you have it on your bed. I know it's really cool and has lots of holes and you're very excited to get it.....but man do you really need to sleep with it?
 
Okay maybe i will try.
Thanks Guys

I haven't heard of anyone else having this problem....but I'm stuck with my install right now. One of the 10mm bolts on the back of the stock DP (heatshield) would not come loose and the head just rounded off...soo I have to cut it off or drill it off or something. Maybe I just suck but that's been my biggest difficulty lol.

Mine nearly did the same. I just pb blaster it, waited about 10 mins, then actually turned my socket to tighten, but some pressure on it, then tried again to loosten it. Seemed to work and it made a loud pop when it finally busted loose. That sucker was ON there. The hardest bolts for me were not the sensors, but the DP to turbo housing bolts. Propaply more than anything because of the limited space.

Carefully grind two flats back on it then soak the hell out of it with your favorite penetrating oil. I would much rather do what it takes to get that bolt out in one piece than try to drill out the remnants if you cut off the head.
 
Has anyone tried heating just the down pipe with a propane torch around the while not catching anything on fire?
