After thinking about it, I'll have to pass on the plenum polishing since it'll take so much work to get my engine bay to anything worth being proud of. Thanks again for putting this group buy together and for the excellent quality.

I got mine in at about 3pm this afternoon but I had work and didnt have time to post up pictures earlier. All in all tho this install was very straight forward and took probably an hour(including eating and d1cking around a little). So far I havent zip tied any of them yet and I tried to follow seans guide to the T. I had a buddy help me out on this so it was pretty easy all together.


Review: I noticed a pretty good improvement in shifting in the Manumatic mode. Some other said the lights and radio were louder and brighter but I didnt really notice. It looks very clean in my engine bay but now I need to polish everything and get it show car worthy. Hopefully.....







I will be going back over this and checking all the wires and such so Sean if you notice anything out of the ordinary can you please let me know. I was in a major rush to get to work so I didnt have as much time as I would have liked.

Thanks again Sean

i was going to wait to do mine for a while cause i figured i would have to take my car in for warranty work since i was sure oil was getting on the spark plug boots, but as i checked them today, all of them were bone dry. so while i had it all torn apart and it wasnt going to need to go to the dealer, i figured id put the kit on, it was very easy and didnt take very long. SxExCx, if you see any areas where a wire is touching something it shouldnt be, let me know. my engine bay is nothing special...

On wire #4, you wrapped it under the factory wire loom. It looks like it is now touching the oil sensor which gets very hot. Just ziptie it so it follows the TOP of the factory loom.

its a 10mm bolt on the passenger side of the trans just above the tran fluid pan, it secures a little id tag to the trans.
