Default Re: Install time?

the TB and dual CAI are going on at the same time so I guess we won't know... I did get a bluetooth OBD scanner and phone app so I can time some 0-60 runs before and after though...

I just need to make sure the OEM elbow is the same as the 74mm one... but I also wanted to debaffle it before bringing all the parts to shop but looks like that might not be an option since the OEM one is obviously still on the car..

and when you say "get serious", I'm not sure I trust myself with grinding the TB itself lol plus I don't have a dremel
I was not aware that the original elbow is used in the CAI install, I am pretty sure it is not ( IF this is a NeedsWings CAI )

looks pretty complete to me ........

One thing I changed was to replace the screw type 3" clamps that Rob sends with some wider, better t-bolt 3" clamps.
I also replaced the filter from the kit with a larger cone type K&N filter.

( BTW, thanks again for that RCM you sent me, allowed me to do the "Me So Horny" mod without fear of screwing up before I sent the spare to TJ )
