Who wants to help install EWG tomorrow? Will offer beer
So my up pipe finally comes today! LOL so its time to install the Grimmspeed up pipe and tial 38mm ewg. I really have no idea how to do it or which lines to use or where to route the lines or which springs to use lol so I'd love some help. I have access to a full service lift and all the tools possible so it shouldn't be too hard. I also have some Perrin EL headers to install. Ill buy you a 12 pack or quality beer as a thank you and if you wanted a photo shoot of your car id be happy to do so. PLEASE and thank you

Its basically intalling an uppipe and then bolting on a dump tube to it. uppipes are a ***** though. some go on smooth in 15mins and others make you throw your tools around and punch walls for 3hrs.
Pretty tight schedule tomorrow but text me when you get started. I'll try to come by and help out. I did an ewg for thasicness when we did his turbo swap...

For the headers you'll need a special socket to remove the sensor, heat shields are kind of a pain. For removing the stock up-pipe sometime it helps to loosen the engine mounts and raise the engine a hair. Hope this helps

Are you having your internal wastegate welded shut or did you by a bracket to block the internal one off? You'll need to do one of those two before your tune.
