Thanks for the orders guys! I should have a sample of the first production run in my hands in week or so for some good photos of the actual production unit! (looks basically the same as the prototype, but its actually real and functional! )

Hey guys, the install is very simple... I can do it in 5 minutes, and most first timers can do it in 30 minutes. Its completely DIY... the kit is 100% plug and play, no tapping, no drilling, no cutting!

check out the "INSTALL GUIDES" section on www.p3cars.com to see a video of the 335 version being installed.

There is a boost tube that runs to our sensor that we include with the kit. Any REAL boost gauge will have its own sensor! We include EVERY part you need for the install... even down to zip ties! ... all you need is some screwdrivers, and a few minutes of your time

It does look pretty straight forward. The only question I have is, how easy is it access the Y connector and vacuum hoses with the stock airbox on? The instructions show the install with a dual cone intake.

The install video is on this page, above the walkthrough vids... you might have to let the page load for a minute.

Its just as easy, you can see your diverter valves as soon as you open your hood, the Y piece is just 6 inches from them, in plain sight.

Thanks!

Hey guys,

I should have the photos by this weekend, the sample that I got back was out of spec... so we had to make some changes. Sorry for the delay on the photos, I just want to make sure it looks the same as what everyone will get

Here is a blurry-cam teaser photo of the first sample we got in... (photo attached)

We had to make a few tweaks on some things that were slightly out of tolerance range... this unfortunately added 7-10 days onto the wait time, but I want to make sure the fit is 100% perfect!!

Thanks everyone for your patience... seeing this in person, it looks SO awesome, and so incredibly OEM, you guys are going to FREAK!

I'll gladly wait an extra few days to ensure perfect fitment. Thanks for the update, it looks great. Definitely looking forward to receive mine.
