Have the long version, and am keeping the stock dv's for now.

Sounds good. It's funny to think how many of us will have the ER setup but we all have a different spec. We should take photos of all of them to compare when we're finished.

Man, I don't think ER have a very good 'checking' department... My check list was longer than Orlin's, yet I have less. Said I should have 12'' long 6mm silicone hose but don't. Lucky I don't need it unlike Orlin!

Also have some other TIAL bits on the check list but assume it's all part of the BOV already installed on the CP, which I'm pretty sure wasn't on Orlins... Anyway, my CP even came with a meth bung which I didn't order, at least it came with a plug!

Unless you park in the garden or on the neighbour's fence, you can only fit three cars on my driveway.

That's pretty poor effort on their behalf, seriously.. Make sure you keep the tail bits we might be missing them in the group buy.

Agreed. Can you post some pics Richard so we can see what is exactly missing? Also curious to see where this meth bung is located considering you didn't order one with it. I'd still recommend tapping into the elbow as I don't like the idea of spraying too close to the throttle body.

It is a poor effort. I'm not sure how they manage to stuff it up because it's fairly straight forward. I was sent the wrong t-clamps but I was lucky enough to have something at home that I used instead. I have spoken to Fred from ER when I've had some issues and also when he was giving me some advice, he's a very nice guy and knows his stuff so I will continue to recommend this great product however I don't think he's the one packing up the orders and sending them out though.

Seems like you guys had a great man-date going on.

I hope you enjoy your new parts and did you guys do some kind of photoshoot towards the end?

You wont fit the cars in the driveway but there are plenty of places to take photos.

Should be an interesting day....

Does your car need any touching up? I'm sure Matt could smooth out any bumps on your car if you needed it

Well, I've got a turbo sitting in my basement, so all we need to do is throw it into the engine bay, then get Matt to install a bonnet scoop and we'll have an instant WRX.
