good stuff. If you are looking for a FMIC pipping kit I have one I'm selling. Will fit your swap as well any generic sized Intercooler you choose to use. Comes with couplers as well. LMK

I don't know if it was the sound on the camera or if it was real but it sounded as if it was misfiring occassionally. Is that the case?

I was wondering this same thing too. Heard the occasional mis-fire.

PS. Open DP, sounds just like mine

Yes it does have the occasional mis. It has become even worse, now it pops, especially when revving...but, I'm surprised it even starts for the fact that I have yet to switch the spark plugs. I have them just need to install them. I should also find a way to clean up the coilpacks. I'll update with pics later. Right now I'm stuck at work. I'm thinking about wiring my fans to my a/c button for now. I just installed the gay smic. I'm going to save up and buy a same-side fmic to run less piping...

Did anyone else forget to take the dust shield off the transmission? I found my drive shaft to be a tight fit, now I know why. When I tried to drive it it felt like the trans was grinding to hell, but the bolts from the driveshaft are eating my dust shield...I'm removing it tommorow. Lets see what happens...

dustsheild is a nono unless you're using the jdm s13 shaft which doesnt have that gay rubber dampener.
