Thanks to everyone that gave me the idea and the help along the way.

BUT! i got a problem. i started it up and the "service engine soon" light comes on. I've checked all the hoses and connections, and they're all in. anyone know what could be wrong? i'm in the middle of an ECU reset. help please.

well i don't plan any dyno soon. i don't think i'll ever have an accuate hp gain, except my butt dyno. i havn't pushed it yet, but even when i do, i havn't driven my car for a month, so i'll have bais butt results.

^ ummm yea... it was. since it would have cost twice as much if i shop did it for me. however i did buy a dremel (but that will come in handy later) and about 50+ dollars in sand paper. It was worth it, becasue i can feel the gain, and it looks sexy, and not being able to drive for a month just make it more exciting when i finally get to.
