I want to get this STB for my 05 coupe as well, but I'm wondering if shops like scott performance or z-car garage will be able to install it correctly because as disco_monkey pointed out, it does require finesse to do correctly. I'm worried that it might stick up too high or something and when the hood closes, it might hit the STB and get dented.

 

Most any compatent mechanic can install this STB, without much of a problem.

 

Thanks for the offer, Chris. I appreciate the jesture. I may just call you on that.

 

Any info if it'll fit with the APS TT piping?
The drivers side bracket seems pretty close to the BOV position on the APS?
Which version do you think would be the best starting point , assuming the driver bracket needs to be modified?

 

FYI , SP is no more .

 

That would depend on the car itself too. Like Scott said... any competent mechanic should be able to install it. Each car is slightly different meaning one might slip right on your car but then the same brace might need some more effort for my car. The install itself wasn't hard. The reason why I couldn't get it to fit the first time was because I made the mistake of not following the directions and tried to put the crossbar on while the car was on the ground. The bolt breaking was my fault again... due to overtightening on my part. The rest was time consuming but not hard at all.
