Oh yeah! Nice Please post your results especially since you're driving an 05. I'm not expecting the results to be different from the 06 coupe I drove but its good to know another person in an 04.5+ coupe will experience the same results.

05/06 are basically the exact same, but I will definitely make a thread

You guys wont regret it, I installed mine a couple weeks ago and posted up my reviews of it here if you'd like to check it for any feedback.

Just installed mine today. Took my friend and I 4 hours but we had a lift. Your DIY was very helpful, and the instructions are super detailed so I had no trouble (it's very straight forward, just time consuming).

Buy it from www.summitracing.com and it will save you $50-75 over GTM.

Yeah, I got mine last week from summit for about $242 shipped. Put it in the x last Sunday and the difference is awesome! Also, it wasn't nearly as hard as expected. Me and a buddy did it and installed a trans cooler in about 4.5 hours taking our time.

yeah. Not harsh...except if you put it from Park directly into Drive. Much smoother to Go Park -> Reverse -> Drive every time.
