First we installed MMP silicone inlets. Used about 10-12 hrs on that job. Had a few frustrating moments durring the install but not the typically struggles that I`ve read on various forums. The inlets itself was suprisingly easy to get in place. The real struggle for me was getting the clamps on the down pipes in place when putting parts together. Also struggled with removing the electric fan for some reasons. Another thing that took some time was cutting the rear oem inlet. I started the cut so I was cuting along the plastic pipe, but when finally started a new cut just a half a cm next to the first cut it took just a couple of minutes.

I guess with out the struggles I had the inlets install would have taken 6-8 hrs.

Anyway, they are in now and sounds amazing. Have not been WOT yet but it feels like the engine is a little more free breathing and more responsive than before.

Also changed the CDV with a new oem one but with the restrictive ID/nozzle removed. This was a good improvement when it comes to drivability.

Removed the oem PCV with a RB upgraded PCV.

The last thing a did was installing a carbon/glass fiber front lip. Just a little descret one to match my rear carbon wing on the trunk.

Not to many pictures taken, but will take better ones when weather is better
