Crap!! missed the 8% off holiday deal. Well at least there is some sort of shipping discount that Partshipper is offering. Not too crazy about the UPS shipping withe brokerage fees

Anyway MREV+ is my stage 3 of mods to put in the G after I get the Z-Tube and Stillen air box.

I’ve just ordered my MREV Copper Plus last night via Partshippers from Dave. I got free shipping and a bit more. He’s going to ship it via USPS and indicate it as a $40 gift! I can’t wait to have my installed so it’s ready for spring.

Question for you folks. Since my G is stored should I install it now or wait till spring and drive my car one last time and then install the MREV so I can see if there is a difference in the pull? My G is stored as I have a winter car right now.

I'd wait til Spring . . . Then get reacquainted with your car . Take her out for a nice drive . . . Then install the MREV.

Yah I was thinking of waiting till spring cause I want to have the feel of my stock car's performance before placing the bolt on in that will leave a smile in my face even bigger then before.

Definitely wait so you can truly appreciate the difference. Your car will feel great to you even without the MRev when you pull it out for the first drive. Doing the install after will give you one more notch again.

there is no group buy just a cupon code which covers shipping and more. totoal cost is 650 something including the taxes. now the deal is that he will ship by usps and declare it as a 40 dollar gift so the taxes ill be either nothing or the tax of $40. Let me know if you are buying then i will give you the cupon code. I did not want to post the code here because i don't know if dave will be happy with that. Just give me a PM

Just wondering if you have received your item yet or if Dave has sent you your tracking # yet. I'm still waiting for the trackign # at this point. Did you check Crappy Tire to see if they have the inch per pound torque wrench?

FWIW...
You realy don't need the low range torque wrench. (unless you want it for other uses)
I've done mine twice now with no problems.
(once for spacer & again for isotherm)

If you use a 1/4 drive straight driver (like a screwdriver handle) it's pretty hard to over torque.

It takes 3 or 4 passes to get them tight..
First time just snug then up (in sequence)
Each sucessive time draws everything into place.

Either way, I'd only use the torque wrench on the last 2 passes.

Enjoy you're going to love the results.

Yeah I got the tracking # but when i enter it in the usps site is not pulling up.
Also I checked crappy tire no go. I have a friend that can get snap on tools at good discount he is going to check if they have a inch per lbs torque wrench for me.
