Started my A2A install, I can't believe how crappy stillens kit is....so complicated compared to just using an intercooler. Whoever designed that intake manifold should be shot. Let's hide three bolts completely underneath the intake manifold and hope whoever buys this kit has a magical elf that can climb up underneath there and loosen/tighten those bolts...I bought a long 12mm wrench specifically for that manifold. I chopped it up, welded it back together, grinded on it... so i could reach those bolts, it took forever. I was thinking about hacking up the aftercooler in the intake manifold like other people have done, but I would have definitely gotten a ton of aluminum shards in the engine.

gonna be back at it tomorrow

done venting
