Looking for some tips

I'm getting ready for a pedestal,wastegate and up-pipe overhaul. I know it's going to be a big PITA going at this alone. Just wondering if there are some suggestions from you guys before I start tearing things apart. Tool sizes,what NOT to do and so on. Thanks

Can't wait to get rid of that hiss and missing boost! Is stabbing those pipes back on a two man operation like the down pipe?
