Default TPiS Header install, How hard? Details?

Topic says it all. Looking to find any install help, like do they install from the top or the bottom easier? What will need to be removed.
Thanks.
Happy Holidays!!!

Either cut and strech your factory H pipe for a slip fit, cut and weld factory h pipe, or add an aftermarket x pipe.
