Pretty much installed everything I have left tonight. The suspension brace came in today and 4 bolts later it was on. Its a little close to the exhaust, but it should be fine. It seems to have tightened up the front end even more. I know some peoplearen't big fans of mantapart, but my hat goes off to them once again.
After that, me and one of my friends took on the header. much to my suprise...after we hit the bolts with some WD-40 they came right out. None broke, once they were loosened up, we were almost able to turn them out by hand. New O2 Sensor was a little tight, but I'm sure the Jet Hot coating may have had something to do with that, but all in all it went flawless.
Once it was done I had to take it for a test run. Very little if any improvement off the line, but in the top end is where I can really tell it did something. Keep in mind I still have the stock cat, stock sized piping and stock 2.3 Quad 4 dual muffler Catback. Once the rest of the exhaust gets opened up I'm sure I'll get a little more out of it.
