they only make a 4-2-1 2 piece, but if your asking 4-2-1 more help on low end. 4-1 more help on top end

1pc isn't that big of a deal to install, i just did it on my GSR integra and all i had to do was get the car pretty high off the ground.

I just installed a 4-2-1, 1 piece last week in my 97 hatch with my car up on jackstands.... no problems with room to work.

What exactly have you heard is a bitch?

yeah i had a 4-1 and i cant see it being much harder if at all to put on than the 4-2-1! i would recommend the 4-1 though! but you will feel the improvement with whatever you choose!
