Honestly nothing really special just make sure you have at least 18" of extensions and a swivel # 15 deep well socket. O2 sensor wrench helps but is not absolute must Don't even try to do it without pulling the cross member. I can do it in about 1 hour now no problem. Once you drop the cross member use a tranny jack to support it. Drop the exhaust pull the nuts holding it the dP holding it to the turbos. On the driver side mounted to the tranny is a holder that holds the DP pain to get to but take the nut off so it can open up and the entire thing can drop out take a few to wiggle it out. This is the hardest part over all. Once the above is done the FR pipe goes in super easy due to the flex section. Install the driver side first loose then the passenger loose. when you get to the point of installing the O2 sensors the driverside will seem short but the harness has MORE then enough you just need to find the slack that is tied up. Overall the first time I did this I would of rated it a 7-10 in hardness. Now looking back I call it a 2-10. factory Dp coming out is the hardest part.

Sounds good. A few questions if you don't mind.

Any numbers available? HP/TQ gains and or price?

Will this accept a factory filter 09-14, or will it be from the '15's or a completely different design? I have an AEM dry filter, just curious if I can re-use it or not.

Thanks!

So...have been away from the forum for a little while...driving the truck mostly!

I'm considering getting a tuner for the truck (3.5L ecoboost, 4x4, 3.55 e-lock) and Full Race is my first choice. Question is: if I order the SCT tuners from the Full Race online store do they come loaded with a tune developed by Full Race? Will the tune still use 87 octane like the factory truck?
