Default instructions for muffler bypass install

I'm thinking of getting either the Sharkwerks or Fabspeed center muffler bypass
and installing it myself. Is one easier to install compared to the other and can anyone post the instructions so i can review prior to purchase?

As I recall, Sharkwerks has instructions on their website. I was able to review before purchase.

I installed the Sharkwerks and as with every vehicle things don't always fit perfect. It was tight in spots and one bend was so close to the other I got a vibration when warmed up. Sharkwerks were great as to help and a great product!

Put the Sharkwerks on my GTS and went on with no problem. Having a lift really makes it easy. Should be able to do it in 30 min.

Were you able to remove vibrations? If so, could you tell me what you've done? I installed sharkwerks bypass pipe and I got vibrations too when my car idle at around 7~800 rpm. I heard PDK cars have this issue but mine is 997.2 manual. I tried to re-torque 6 bolts (3 each side) connecting this product and header, but it didn't work for me.
