2.87 each! What a rip. I'm guessing your talking about the plastic fasteners on the undertray, not the metal spring hose clips?
Yeah, i'm just going to see how difficult it is when I go to install the hose. Right now the car is on stands so I can get to the hoses from both the top and the bottom. I'll try the bottom first and if it seems to be too difficult I'll also try the top. 2.87 each is a total rip!! I am referrring to the plastic fasteners on the undertray. I ordered 20 of them from a dealership in CA where they sell them for 1.04 each.

So they are going to break if I ever have to take my undertray off even if I'm careful?

I have a 3" turboback but with the stock cat so I'm probably boosting a little less. No boost gauge yet so I can't say what psi I'm getting.

Anyone,
thoughts on running 3" turboback and 21.3 psi long term?

Mojo, I'm running with the stock cat too, I have a 3" high flow cat going on this week after my exhaust buddy welds on the flanges. There are no certified 3" OBD2 cats in Cali yet, so having flanges will allow me to switch to the stock cat when needed. So, for now after you install the P2 you'll be runninhg the same pressures. Do you have the Aperture and Exhale?

I have a B&B DP and turboback. No throttle body. I really need a boost gauge, next on the list.

I was hoping the P2 would be able to keep boost around 19-20 range with the turboback. At least I know the afr is a little richer with the P2. Need to get to a dyno with wideband O2 I guess.

I'm a few plastic clip sshort on my undertrey when the car bottomed out on a deep *** pothole on a garavel road and ripped half the tray off... the good thing about those plastic clips is that they allow some give and instead of ripping out the metal and plastic mounts they were attached to, , i just broke a couple of clips.

the clips have a trick to them to get them off easily.. they need to be in tenstion when you're unscrewinng them to come off. that means that pull down gently on the the undertay right next to the clip you're trying to remove, and barely push the screwdriver into the screw, just enough for the grooves to catch and the screw to turn.
the reason for this is that the threads of the screws are nor engaged when the screw is all the way on, and wehn you push on it to unscrew it, it keeps the thread from engaging. just pull down the on the piece its holding and the thread will engage and the screw will come out with no problem..

if you can pull the plastic down while you unscrew helps also. I really think it is easier to do everything from the top though
