overall i believe its easy, i have helped a friend do his on a 2000 si, i have heard that on our cars some of the bolts are hella hard to get off. i donno what to tell you, you should prolly spend like 50 bucks to get it installed by a pro!

theres 4 or 5 bolts that hold the header to the exhaust manifold and 2
bolts that are holding on to the downpipe that you need to take off and you
do need to jack up your car to get to those bolts that are holding the downpipe

if its DC it should take only like 5 minutes. If its hp with high flo cat, might take a little longerlike 30 min to an hour

i found that the hardest part was breaking the torque on the bolts. there are two or three of them that are in very awkward places, and you have to be very careful not to strip the lower bolt that holds the heat shield on. otherwise, it's very easy. oh yeah, be careful not to damage the gaskets either, you don't have replacements for them.

drive your car around and floor it a lot. then put your hand on the stock manifold and see what happens.

just playing, never touch the exhaust manifold unless you havent driven the car in 1-2 hours.

it is quite simple to install, just make sure you dont crush the gaskets. btw dc says "do not put the heat sheild back on"
