Here's mine.. Got it done rather quickly.. Only one that was kind of tricky was #7, (little room to work) and the AT wire, knowing what bolt to attach to.. But the pics were dead on, and Sean your measurements of the wires.. PERFECTION BRO!!!



Now I have an excuse to clean my engine bay.. DIRTY!!!

Naughty240, since Hoth isnt even in our gallaxy, I'm not sure what region to count you under...lol
What region did Texas fall under.. I think I'm the first from the south.. We're not a "coast" per-say but not east or west either.. Does that mean I'm the first from the south?

I'm interested in a polished plenum and could use the 20% too..

To the Canadian guys who needed tracking info....USPS tracking SUCKS! It does not give me a scheduled delivery, it will only confirm that it has been delivered once you get it. Sorry.

things ive noticed:
tiptronic shifting is much, much quicker.
when trans is in D, and wot, shifting is quicker.
radio is louder at higher speeds.
might have a little more power too, but not sure

I jacked up both sides and had stands on both sides. I would say you should probably try to do that because you might be under the car for a little while trying to find where to bolt the last wire. I was probably under there for 5 minutes trying to find the right spot.


And the shifting in trip tonic is alot quicker and even in D the car drives a good amount smoother. I'm glad I finally got this in. Next project is cleaning up the engine bay once all this rain goes away.
