wow dude, im impressed! i had help and a pit and i thought it would have been horrible to do this without a pit/lift, or by myself. thats probably why you ended up with a few nicks/dings. i had my buddy hold them up from underneath while i started the bolts. i cant believe you pulled it off solo its kinda hard to tell from the video but do you have the exhaust suck air back in as it burbles on decel after a rev? sounds good overall! i like it!

Thanks Kingbaby for the kind words, if any of you guys feel the need to post some great reviews on our facebook feel free

What should we do next ?

I'm putting together a differential cooler that will be really DIY friendly and much cheaper then some of these other guys. But we can do something in the time being.

PS: Next time you need help Kingbaby I'm here I need a vacation.

The green thingy is a sock!
Which version did you get (stepped or non-stepped) and what are your initial impressions? Did you notice a decrease in power off idle to 3000rpm?

We have about 20 plus cars that have dynoed at over 25hp with the PPE's I myself made some great gains but was running a cosworth plenum at the time. Waiting for the car to get out of the body shop to retune her with the mrev-2 and 5/16's spacer. If you're looking for proof it's across the board.

Any of a DE on OEM cams? I looked at your FB page and didn't see any. I'd be interested to hear what the great gains were on your car, since we have similar setups. I don't think you ever posted anything but a video of your car on the dyno with no numbers. I'd like to see numbers with the mrev-2 and spacer vs. the Cosworth too.

Trust me if my body guy wasn't a sponsor I would be flipping out he has had it for a while now. As soon as I get it back I will retune her. I'll try to scan my dyno in today and post it.

Fun time begins. They are easily done from a garage floor, I really don't see how a lift would help. Most of the work is done from up above.
