    Got it installed in around an hour. Took my time of course. Looking back on it, i wish i would have preassembled the thing in my basement and then put it on because the instructions made it a PITA.

    Only thing i dont like about it is the airbox, it doesnt seem to fit that well. IF anyone has some detailed pics of theirs i would appreciate it.

    And naturally i forgot to plug up the MAF sensor and that was the only screw up on my part. Ive always forgot to plug that damn thing in... :rolleyes:

    As far as performance yea its there but im onlly useing the 87 octane tune. GOing to run out all the 87 tonight and put some 93 in there and test out the torque and the performance tune.

    got the 93 uploaded tonight. This was with the 93 performance and its even a bigger difference than the 87. From a slight roll its no where burning the tires like the cobra but it has A LOT more get up and go than stOck and way more than the 87. I'm real impressed with this, its no BS what people say. This is probably the best mod for these cars NA.

    I'll be puttin some 4:10s in soon enough. But its going to be about a year or so. I wanted to get the normal/easy mods out of the way such as the intake and exhaust. Hell give me a break, the car only has 2800 miles on it :D
