Sorry if this is in the wrong section.

I just got a AMS LICP and was wondering how long it would take to do and if you really needed to take the front bumper off??

I'm going to be doing this at work so I will be on a lift.

Thanks for any input.

it'd be a lot easier but you don't have to

no you dont, but i recommend the lift... i first did the install at my house and the hose that connects to the turbo was slanted a bit and i couldnt tell because of space constraints... small leak... went on the lift and bam easy does it

dont have to but you should take it off to put it on correctly and insure its not bent causing a leak

if you have the undertray you'll have to....i would take it off anyways. it's not like it that hard at all.

The bumper is easier to get off then the licp! Super easy it just sounds intimidating!

Thanks guys, I'll take the bumper off. It's just that my new service manager is a *****. I'll just have to do it as fast as I can.

Thanks again.

I have done it both ways. It's about the same amount of work either way,

why would he do that.Looks like hes a machanic and is more then capable of handling that task unlike most evo owners.Bumper removal is i do in like 3 min with no undertray its not much longer if you have tray.

i installed my LICP about 10 days ago .. take the undertray off, then the bumper. IT WILL BE SOO MUCH EASIER if you take off the bumper. The bolts which are on the supporting brackets on the stock LICP are a PITA to take off with the bumper on .. Take the bumper off, its SUPER easy and will make things go MUCH faster and easier.

+1 the only reason why I would take the bumper and everything off is to ensure the t-bolt clamps are put on in such a way that you can later get at them from just peaking your head underneath the bumper. In other words, do it right the first time, then if you have to tighten them later you don't have to take the bumper off.

Do yourself a favor and practice taking off the front bumper. It will make your licp install go much easier and after a couple times practicing the front bumper is as easy as changing a tire.
