Default I'm so proud, I did an install...


Or at least I helped someone install my header and cat.

Good ol' Mark at Landspeed Racing helped me put on my Spoon header and a Carsound cat, whole deal took us about 2 hours. To dispell the myth, you DO NOT need to remove any fans, AC parts or whatever. Just a few simple twists of the header and it went right in. We ended up trimming a small piece of heat shield from around the cat area, but that's the only mod that we had to make.

This board has been flooded with "it pulls nicely now throughout" and "it sounds great" and whatever so I won't bore you with how it feels on the car.

I just wanted to say "yay, we did it."

And I'd do it again, so nya...

You know, one of the best parts about this project was spending time with someone who has such knowledge of the darn car. Anything I pointed to, he gave full explanations of.

And yes, he had cool tools.

And no, Kepani, you don't get the header
