As title, my friend has just bought one after many of month me telling him to get one before a remap, and no doubt I will be fitting it for him, he seems to think the engine mounts will need loosening and the engine rocking to be able enough room to get the downpipe on? Is this true?
 
Hi, just logged in after a while and read you thread.

If your fitting a down pipe section then you will need to drop the lower sub frame, ball joints to remove the existing down pipe and fit the new one as there's no room otherwise.
Or you can cut the old one off from part way down if you have the right tools.
