Very nice write up and pic. This makes me think of my up pipe in my old STI. The downpipe was so simple on the rex!!

No boost spikes, lol and about the labor forgot to mention that the shop owner is a friend of my friend, they usually charge $60-$70 per hour for labor.

The gains are noticable just like they are on a test pipe.

My only issue with describing that is it was installed with the testpipe and the catback and then followed up with the stage 2 AP tune. It was a crazy amount of gains.

got my AMS dp on tonight. It actually only took me about 3hrs to do this time around! Word of advice for the nut in the back... Take the stock wastegate off. By moving the rod out of the way, it gives you enough clearance for a close-ended wrench!. I can also confirm that the AMS DP gives you more clearance for an easier install!

OMG! I HATE this install, or should I say uninstall!
I have 4 of the 5 bolts on the passenger side off.
I cant get the o2 housing heat shield off to reach the last ****ing bolt!
