HIIC 08/09 Peeps look here...
I'm looking for at least 1 person that is willing to mod their car for the better of the 08/09 community. Don't need to go crazy but if you're going to put something on your car give me a call and I'll document it.
MIKE (sleepy_doe807) I know you've done a few things to your car... Anything new coming?

the clutch & flywheel install yes. but i never posted it up. to lazy
i documented it since while i was on the LGT forums no one had any info on the 08 LGT clutch install so i'm assuming this is one of the first ones done. i mean no one had any info about an 08 lgt on nasioc also (at the time we did it)

We can take all my **** out and then put it back in if you want! If not, I will let you know when something expensive explodes and massive replacement needs to happen. You can document all you want!
12 days late. i installed my Perrin EL header & up pipe on the 11th.
but i still have a hallman boost controller to install and looking at getting an AEM intake.

I'm sure the EL header and up pipe are similar to the older models... the only thing I care about is what things need to be removed to get the job done. Any pictures?
sorry, no pix. i read somewhere that previous cars had to remove passenger side motor mount and jack up the engine. not required on my install. of course it took me 12 hours and 2 trips to get stuff (anti-seize first and 1/2" to 3/8" adapter). all by myself in garage with jack & 2 stands.
aem website says out of stock. i'll keep searching for something else to document besides a MBC controller.

don't feel bad... my first uppipe install on my car took me 14 hours. As you do them you get quicker. I can do change one out in about 1~1.5 hours now from start to finish
