Yup, you start shopping for sharkfin antennas and next thing you know, you got your hand wedged between the frame and engine block tickling the little screws to remove this thing haha. The world IS flat and is a pita to get to.

Oil fed FI unit. Went from reservoir version to engine-fed unit and the bung on the valve cover is the drain from the FI. Not fun but it became a necessity.

Drilling a hole no problem. Welding, yeah no thanks. An east bay fabricator/weld shop is doing the work. Everything else is re-installed, just waiting on the valve cover.

Then back to tuning and drivability. Long progress . Car has been down a month - so we're excited to break it in. Light at the end of the tunnel is getting brighter and brighter haha

What are you guys' opinions? UEL header first, or some type of exhaust?

nvm, probably less headaches (CEL, etc) by just sticking with some type of cat or axle-back.
