Default HELP!!

All right here's the deal i just moved to fl from texas and bought me an 07 cbr600 and bout me some new upgrades for the bike.
1.full yoshimura rs5 exhaust
2.power commander
3.ignition module

I don't really know anyone here in fl yet so i wont really trust my bike with anyone else so i wanna do the work in putting the exhaust on myself. I know how to put the power commander on and the ignition module. But i aint to familiar in putting a full exhaust. So i would really appreciate it if anyone here could give me a few pointers and advice about installing it. And also what and what not to do.

take your time when doing it. Its really not that hard you just have to have patience when doing it. I usually takes alot of before pictures so I don't wind up with extra bolts and stuff. You'll probably need new exhaust gaskets as well.

that is the HTEV
basically, its hondas way of passing noise levels at idle. there is a flap inside that blocks exhaust flow at idle but there is a servo that opens the plate up as the throttle goes up.

you remove it for a full system. the servo is under the seat. you have to leave the servo plugged into the wiring harness but you can take the cables off of it.

no prob, removing the cables from the servo is pretty straight forward. they attach like bicycle brake cables.
just make sure to leave the wiring harness plugged to the servo
