I never saw this listed anywhere in the directions but its a good idea if you still have them to remove the stock bracing bars from the strut towers to the firewall - they run the risk of being in the way when positioning the manifold on the car. Also if you don't have one, a magnet on a stick is a huge help

Did you call and order? I hit them up last night in an email but haven't heard back. Can't call at the moment.
@stockysnail - do you have a pic of your setup?

As soon as @Dustin posted above, I called and ordered. They have a few already made.

I want to see a pic of it installed.

Did either of you happen to ask about the Intake box/cone they had started to develop? I mentioned to them on FB about it being compatible with our kit and they said it would. Wonder if we could get our hands on that.

I thought about it, but it looks rather bulky in there when mated up to the intake. Plus I don't want to buy one new since i'm only using half of it lol

See the end of my first post in my build thread (click link in my signature). At work so no time to repost.

Hey guys, I'm about ready to pull the trigger on this kit. I would like to ask the powers that be on this thread whether I need the intercooled setup if I'm just daily driving this. Mind you it's 50 feet below sea level here in Houston and in the high 90's low 100's here during the summer. What say you?

If I were only using my car for daily driving, I wouldn't get the intercooled version. I realize I'll get a lot of flack for my opinion, but I just don't think it's necessary for daily driving. The headaches and extra complexity that the intercooler adds, isn't worth it IMO.

I really think the non-intercooled version is perfectly fine for daily driving, where you aren't 100% throttle for 30min at a time (like you are on the track). I'd save the money and headache.

I'll wait for others to flame me now

pulled it off the car today. haven't driven her NA yet, but i've no doubt i'll miss the power.

gotta get the issues figured out, and then find a buyer (once everything is 100%)
