Gilbert-did you end up running your headers or going back to stock manifolds? Also, did you move the power steering cooler per the instructions or did you use the new relocation technique? Any tips, problems, or general advice you wanna let a future installer know about? Any input is appreciated. BTW was the A/C line hard to disconnect? I read some guy posted you need Ford a/c disconnect tool to get the line off.

I decided to go with the stock manifolds just so I wouldnt run into problems.

I relocated the power steering fluid where it says to.

A/C line was a ***** to disconnect I just used a flathead and banged the **** out of it with a hammer till it came off.

I would recommend you use a wrench with the swivel head 12 point preferably to tighten the turbo down and maybe some crows feet.

and that reminds me I need to get my A/C recharged

Honestly I think its easier to just take it to the dealer. That refrigerant smells like **** and can get every where. The dealer can swap lines WAY before install. Under $100 to do it and recharge the system which you have to go to the dealer for anyways.

Congrats on getting the kit in Redhot. Anything I can do to help just let me know. I too would hold off on getting too nuts till the boost and wideband are in.
