Working on final render for the install video. It's not spoon feeding info but it's got everything you'll need to swap out if you are comfortable with a wrench

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Any updates on the installation process?
It's not hard to do. Just got to remove the fans, radiator and some hoses and clamps. It's like a 3 to 4 hour job.

Ok... have you installed one already? Some was mentioned removal of the front bumper. Which I'd rather not do. Thanks for the reply

Mine is installed yes. And you have to take off the bumper no other way

Yes I installed mine and yes bumper must be removed and I'd say removing the bumper is the easiest part it's like 6 screws and 4 clips.

When do we get to hear about the reviews of these intercoolers?

Ok... I'm gonna have to do some research on removing the bumper, radiator and fans I guess...  thanks again for the info... one more thing did the install require any special tools?

Thanks Z... I'm nervous that I'd damage the bumper removing it. But it does look pretty simple. I'll have to watch a few YouTube videos first... lol

If the bumper is your biggest worry, you may not want to tackle this job. The bumper is the easiest part.

I think we should be clear on terminology.  Are we removing the bumper COVER or the bumper?  Removing the bumper itself is a safety issue.  The COVER is easy peasy, but definitely suggest 2 people, underlayments to place the cover on, etc.  Not much required.

Cover only, not the crash protection structure.
