YEA STAGE 2 WOOT Pics and a video to follow shortly. Adrian was a HUGE help and after he cleaned up the silicone crap it mated up perfectly. We double heat wrapped one spot and we had to cut off a small piece so teh last bolt would go on. STAGE 2 POWER!!!!! no backfires though........

OH I almost forgot. Thanks to paperchasin's excellent service, I received a new set of hood dampers which WERN'T defective and work perfectly. THe entire install took 5 min, (20 min less than the previous install) and they work like a charm.



The ac line is touching the downpipe, but since its wrapped, its not melting/burning at all

Adrian's excellent work cleaning up the silicone goop that was on there and making them fit perfectly

Sweet...the stock heatshield is def. not hard to remove. the only problem i had was the support for the stock dp Once again congrats on the install and upgrade. And like everyone else, is there a protune near the future? Also did you find out the tourque specs for the the dp?

theres no way to get a torque wrench into the dp area so a few good grunts does it. Also after i get some defis, and possibly a fuel pump etc, i will be getting a protune

And this is why you dont let your girlfriend drive your car. Keep in mind she learned to drive in a stick shift car and was the one who originally taught me how to drive a stick.
