Stillen Gen 3 Intakes and Exhaust came to my friends job on Thursday night. Friday afternoon he put the exhaust on for me...Saturday morning I put the intakes on. So I didn't let them collect dust at all. I reset the ECU and had to fix the auto up on windows. I didn't do the pedal dance ecu reset like I should have since I unplugged battery...took no chances!
Definitely invest in a Dremmel, or just buy one use it for 5 minutes and return it. either way works.
Car definitely pulls harder, but engine is still breaking in so I gotta wait a little longer to see cars full power.(I installed both of these parts at just under 1000 miles lol!) The car sounds amazing, you don't really hear the intakes as much as the exhaust. I've already gotten a load of compliments, the thick exhaust tips are very sexy. I just have to adjust the exhaust a bit next time it is on the lift. One side sticks out more than the other. Should be a simple fix.
HFC's coming before end of year...or in the spring, haven't decided!
Also on a side note, I did not remove the brace, saw no need to since there was plenty of room. Also I used the suggested fix to clear the AC lines by slicing the second tube in half and wrapping the lines. I only had a little duct tape so when I go clean filters I'll put a stronger adhesive on.
