Test pipes install, fail. Opinions and advice please!

I'm waiting for my F.I. HFC and CBE, one question. Is it possible to remove the cats from underneath the car, or do I have to remove the intake pipes

You CAN do it from only the bottom, I've swapped them out 3 times now from only the bottom... But I had a lift

i did all mine from underneath. i think i tried the one from above and had less luck than i did when i tried from below. took me about a hour per cat to get off because of those stupid demon bolts. there may have been a sawzall in there somewhere lol
