Seems #1 and #4 are the most prone to knock, that I've seen, wonder why ( with sarcasm ).

Those are also the cylinders that line up with both sides of the intake where the pcv line branches out to.

They do look nice when done pity I have to close my hood to drive :)
I know!! Also makes me want to just leave the engine cover off, lol. Maybe when I get the cool hoses like yours! I'm planning on making an aluminum cover myself one of these days...

I think I have reached that point and it will not be going back on for now.. Make a great bit of flair on the race trailer wall I think :)

Ok so I went for a test drive, I noticed reduced power and my bov isn't making any noise. Immediately brought it back to the house. Any guesses to what I've done?

Do you hear any hissing/ leaks? Is everything tight and all connectors connected?

Blew off a boost hose. It's fixed now.

After the test run it definitely woke up third gear. Second does not feel as strong but possibly it's just because third feels so strong now.

I'm satisfied.

That will do it! Glad it was an easy fix.

We've had a few people order the TB spacers on their own. We wonder who if anyone has just them installed yet?

Not ready for the manifold spacer yet. I feel like it won't be my baby after opening up that can of worms. I said I'd never bother with an intercooler, but it looks like I'm going to do that soon. I've had the car for under three months. Long way to go.

As I'm sure you've heard before, modding is an addiction!

Drove it to work today for the first time. It's a rocket from a roll now. Third gear coming off an off ramp wot will put you back in the seat.

Install isn't fun, and takes a while. But for the cost vs results I'm very pleased.
