Nice! Whats your input on it. worth it? Just happy, super excited? Details! hehe. As I asked the other guy in his post...can u track your MPG and see how much mpg u get, and what miles u have on a 1/2 and full tank? Just trying to compare to stock and learn.
I wonder on a long expressway trip in 5th gear if the mileage would be the same? What are the RPMs like around 70mph?

Yes please get a dyno ASAP before you get the ECU re-flashed.
You would be the only person to do it and compair those numbers to the flashed 194whp. You may even have more power. No one knows... but you have a chance to prove it. It will cost you about $80 to have it done.

^ Dedicated to DocI for putting it right
^
Parts i dont know yet what to do. Sell ?
Injectors Oil pan timing belt etc
Just a shift **** i picked up while i was waiting to pick up my car
S/C box labeled outside, for those who still dont believe and argue otherwise
its #72 in the S/C list, still cant figure what its for
Assorted stickers i havent put on yet.
Comparison from left to right. Stock OE filter. OE supplied kit filter. Hydrocarbon filter supplied.
You cant remove the HC filter on top of the box filter because the Airbox wont seal right way.
Same as above. Pic 2
Mystery tube mounted inside the stock airbox
Mounted in the airbox

HC filter is mounted on the frame that you need for the airbox to seal right, but the filter itself can be removed.
The "mystery tube" is actually a helpful thing if you don't want your car resonating inside at 5K+. Makes everything much quieter. I put mine back in.
Also don't forget to replace the paper filter in the kit with K&N ;)
