Looks good. Does the kit come with everything you need to install it? What about the stock brace clearance? Doesn't look like you're running yours...do you know if it will clear it?

at 5/8 thickness i doubt it wouldn't, did it even come with those big spacers for the stock strut bar, so you can try to make it fit?

You can find them at some speed shops but I got mine off Ebay. There posted or best offer so I offered 80$ shipped and they took it. I then bought the iso gasket and CCV from a member here for 30$ so total cost was 110$ shipped. Saved about 140$ off the iso MSRP. All in all I recomend the Blox for the best bang for the buck. With the money I saved I bought Asuka mirrors from M1, CF door handle cover from the forum and a custom CF J panel from ebay. Highly satisfied!

Absolutly, I ran it for an hour straight with 8psi boost and so far so good. I have checked for leaks with carb/chok cleaner and everything is keeping a solid seal thus far. The material is similur to the skunk2 spacer so I am sure it will hold up but I will let everyone know if I have issues. I also ran the CCV wide open for max heat and everything is still perfect. I will shut the CCV after i do more testing to manage the plenum heat but as is it good.
