Fitting new downpipes
#2
The main trick is getting the old pipes off without uprooting or braking the studs, other than that clean the gasket area thoroughly and you can use a bit of grease or whatever you fancy to hold the new gaskets in place.
I think the torque settings for headers is quite low if i remember correctly so don't go mad tightening them.
And keep checking them every few days for a couple of weeks until they settle in as i found mine loosened a few times at first.

NOTE: Torque setting for the header nuts is only 10Nm
