It is not a novice install. You may want to have a professional install it. Good time to change a timing belt too, if you have enough miles.

It is about a 5 hour install along with adjusting valves.

that is a picture of the intake manifold. the head is not pictured or listed on their site at this point since it's still kind of a special order type of thing. I'd suggest if you buy either you should find a mechanic to do it since both the head and manifold or difficult installs.

given your mods i would get the UD pulley and RRM piggy back before this. these will really help you more.

it would be good b/c it will give you a better air fuel ratio. before you add to many more air mods this would help since it will help add more fuel to your engine to go with the extra air.

it's not necessarily going to gain a lot for you on the top end. It's more to make sure you have the proper AFR during WOT. If you are lean or rich you aren't producing max power. If you are super lean or rich you can damage the engine. the more lean/rich you are right now the more power you can get back with the piggyback over the entire RPM range.

Right. Tuning is everything. At least with the piggy you can tune to your own power. Dan, did you ever send that map to Gabe?

yeah I sure did. I am working on fine tuning the car now. I just recalibrated the wideband yesterday and am taking additional readings to make sure everything is running properly. Will probably send you guys the new files next week some time if you are still interested. I can send complete excel spreadsheets of anything that I can log with evoscan, so let me know what data you would be most interested in.

I am still planning on logging the stock map vs rrms map vs my map, but there aren't too many places to run like that out here so I have to wait until the weekends so I can stay up late
