I've always thought your car is nice, especially after the new color!

Thanks for stopping by yesterday to show me what you did! Believe me man, I wanted to go for a ride Hopefully your offer still stands later!

1100 miles....and I'm glad to report that there haven't been any major issues with the Kit / Performance

So far just a couple of very minor things:

* One of the rubber elbow connectors coming off of the intercooler popped off. A quick re-adjustment & re-connect and I was on the way.
* Very small oil seep at the oil-pan "T" connection. Gave it a 1/4 turn to tighten & it went away.
* The PTuning dual exhaust sits a little lower at the rear "Y" connection....since the car is lowered it's not a lot of clearance

Probably going to have the shop weld on two more hangars so I can make use of the two forward OEM hangar spots that are not being used by the PTuning exhaust and try to use a shorter rubber hangar to snug it up a bit.

Lastly...due to the positioning of the Air Intake with the kit.....AI temps seem to rise very quickly when driving around town or at slower speeds, especially when the radiator fan is on and is blowing right into the intake. I'll be interested to see if / when the PTuning guys make an alternate design to the AIT location.

Otherwise..........So Far - So Good

Hopefully they invent the Cool Box they talked about. They said by fall they should have something made up. Fall is close.

I have noticed the same thing also. I have not had any issues either except for some oil leaking at the pump fittings but some teflon tape solved that. I am actually just getting in car and driving and not worrying as much about checking stuff all the time and logging with computer. That is a nice feeling when you have a kit you can trust is not going to cause problems... ptuning.

Surprisingly loud...(in a good way)...after 5300 rpm, the open dump just screams.

The guys on street bikes end up with a shocked expression when they realize that I give em' a good run, and they can't pull away
