Default Progress with MY01

My PLM Headers came in monday, so I decided to create a thread to track my modification progress.

at the moment all I have in is a AEM V2 CAI

but soon.....






and also.....



Exhaust is IN!!!!!!



had to get it home somehow.....





Haven't really unwrapped any of it yet.. but will take more pics during install next weekend!

Overall, very pleased with the quality of all the parts.

Thanks to PLM

BERK Technology

and Greddy for making such great quality parts

(and I guess GoTuning for getting these parts to me.. wish the exhaust tip had no brand name etching but oh well.. cant be too picky now!)

Also big Thanks to aeonracer and TKim for your mounds of information. As well as your help aeon, with installation and explanations! I'd become a broke ricer without ya'll. Now I'm just becoming more often.


Will be getting the Car dyno'd Next week monday just to get an idea where im starting hp/tq wise. I have no actual power gain GOAL at the moment, just tweaking the car and hoping the parts mate well.

Safety 21 4 PT Roll Bar sitting in room. Haven't even unwrapped it yet as that is going to be a project for a much later date.

Still debating on getting PSS9's, but Coilovers are definitely next step!

Also...



these mirrors are awesome. Great for reducing glare, and reducing blind spots! Check em out in the Marketplace. I believe the sellers name is jaima and they only cost about 40$

Any input is appreciated!

Awesome how do you like it so far?
I heard the PLM header's give better gains when mated with a HFC.

Hows the cabin drone also? I'm not too worried about it just curious.

Sounds good. I'm itching to get it in this weekend, but unfortunately couldnt get a Dyno scheduled for this week. So must be patient...

Yea i recall you telling me that before LOL yet I've never seen your car.

You've seen the White single exhaust S2 thats across the street from the elementary school? thing has been sitting there all year.. what a waste..


Wonder if he will sell it

One of the guys that comes out to our meet has it on his AP2. SOUNDS BEAUTIFUL.

Yes i plan to do a before and after... Otherwise I'd be putting in the parts as we speak. I've been sitting on the cat for over a month now, and waiting for the exhaust for almost 3 months.. so, hopefully it will be worth the wait!

Have to make it till Monday
