I am installing mine at 10pm Eastern Standard. I doubt Ill be the first on the East but I just want it installed. I wish I had more money for Polishing my engine out. Being 19 sucks sometimes.

sean, i wont be installing this for a while yet, but i just read through the first half of the instructions and wow, what a job man. extremely thorough and very easy to follow. i am very impressed with it just by looking at the kit, from the instructions, to each labeled wire, to the heatshrink on the connectors. quality work man, just like everyone has said.

I got mine today and was going to install it tonight, but the other stuff I did took longer then anticipated. I did install the AT line though since I had the car on a lift. Tomorrow I'll install the rest of the kit if the weather holds out.

Prolly the dirtiest engine bay. Installation instructions were the best from any aftermarket parts I've installed.


Not sure what to do with the wire on top of the MAF. If I pass it underneath, it seems like it would get in the way of the dipstick. Any suggestion Sean?

go under the intake tube and zip tie it to something down there so its out of the dipstick's way, imo

The dipstick shape is crooked and goes along the entire flexible portion of the intake tube. If i go deeper then i won't have enough slack to bolt it on to the side.

Maybe, if i don't pass it under the plenum and then attach it to the AC line then I would have some slack. I should try that tomorrow.

It looks like we have a winner! Great job Gabe!
I apologize that the instructions were black/white. I wanted to do color copies so you could see everything better but it was going to cost $450. I could have posted the install online but I want to keep it protected. If you guys can keep the instructions to yourself, I would really appreciate it. Here are a few color pics to help you with routing. #7 runs under the intake and is long enough to reach no matter what intake you run, you just might have to play around to find the best fit.
