The install will not be that difficult. Heres why. We are going to take the whole system off of Matt's car, so we will know exactly how its supposed to go/look/work. So Im figuring maybe 10 hours? One thing that may hold up is I need to have Meineke or someone weld a bung onto one of my cats, so one will have to come off, I doubt they can do that with them on the car? Ill call and ask, but thats one thing. I want to have the SS box ready to drop in by that time as well, the oil pan is drilled/tapped,got NGK's on the way. He even has USB cable and software so you can tune with the R4. Neato, although Ill leave that to someone else. Matt said he started at 7am and finished at like 10pm, so we could do a little less since itll be fresh in our heads. I just hope the oil return line is long enough to reach the spacer, should be.

Omar,

The O2 bung can be welded with the cats on the car still.

Here is a place that still has the Defi Gauges in Amber.

Hey guys checking in from the wifes place in NY....G....How do you like the exhaust? Painted it black just for looks.

I will be on here a few times...when I get a chance from running around here with the closing of the house.

Let me know if anyone has any questions.

Car sounded mean as hell with just the HFC's!
