Just ordered mine for $397. Should I do this install myself or should I take it to a shop

Here are the install instructions. Give them a read to see if you are comfortable doing it yourself.

I installed mine several months ago via the instructions and felt the car lagged a little sub 3k rpm. I tried researching if the duct which restricts the rubber tubing makes a difference cut vs. uncut. No results. I decided to try it myself and after cutting and letting the ecu relearn it feels stronger. I don't have anything to prove this except for my butt dyno....

It's pretty believable that you gained a few hp from that. The cross section where the silicon tube passes throug the uncut hole is a lot smaller than uncompressed. Did you cut the same way the Gen III's require cutting? Like do the tubes go through the same location?

Ummmm... there's nothing to CUT. The radiator supports simply unbolt. Might even be just one bolt each, its been awhile, I don't remember exactly.
