I would leave now but it's monsoon raining and there's a broken down bus on the highway I need to drive... no point in leaving just to sit in that crap.

Took the car out after relocating the temp sensor away from the oil cooler this morning. Got it up to running temps and then pulled some data logs for UpRev to dial in the tune again. It was a beautiful sunny day today too! Perfect day for a cruise....

You have to remove the machined aluminum piece on the Z1 tube. Not sure why they included those :confused:

Np, glad I could help :tup:

A few other things that made the install smoother for me...
I removed the strut bar. Unless you want to be in the garage cussing for a few hours, it's worth the time taking this off first.
I trimmed the tubes up 1/4" on the airbox side. Again, same thing as strut bar.
I also unbolted the airboxes. This made it easier to maneuver the tube onto the throttle body, once connected.
It's also easier with two people.

Strut bar was removed, working with a friend to finish it. Taking a break right now.

Done! I think.
Questions: Should I be feeling air from the spot where my hand is?
Does that other part im holding get removed for good?
Sorry for the bad picture, flash sucks.
Also, need to now figure out how to get this broken bolt out and replaced.

Not sure about the air bit, but it doesn't necessarily surprise me.

That's a resonator, and yes..you're done with it.

D'oh on the broken bolt! :facepalm:

Sure does look tasty! :yum: What's your immediate take?

Oh, did you do it yourself?

Oh yeah..Nice Hand! You should be a hand model!

Haven't taken it out for a spin yet. I wanted to check in and make sure the air issue was normal.

I did it with the help of a friend. He did most of the disassembling, I fitted the tubes, we both reassembled.

Make sure your airbox is seated properly. There's a rubber/foam gasket in the front there where the inlet is that feeds air to the airbox. I had to readjust mine so the gasket had a good seal going to the front of the airbox.

It's too dark out now. I'll have to see if he can help me again. I didn't disconnect the sensors but was able to pull up the boxes and move around a bit, could have sworn we had that side lined up though.

What happens if i don't fix it?

I'm dropped on H+Rs. The angle and zoom is altering the image a bit I noticed. If you look at my sig pic you can see it more clearly.

If there's a way to get more air flow, then it's worth your while to fix it. It's not going to hurt anything though until you do.

I got challenged by a Juke, of all things, heading back from UCD tonight. Wait, I just looked at the picture I snapped with my Droid. That's Mrs. onzedge, that's our Juke. Oops.
