nice... you could either spray it yourself or have it powder coated but just make sure you mask off the fins so that you get the best cooling.

will probably need to install a TMIC too, but want to spray off the paint. Do you guys think brakekleen is ok to use? I'll bring my tools over too.

So are you planning on swapping the FXT for the STi?
Maybe i'll try to get the FXT one mounted then? Let me know what you want for it.

you know it...hey if you want my stock FXT tmic to try out you can. just gotta wait like a week so i can make sure i don't have any issues. yo james i would not recommend you doing this and if your gonna make sure you have A LOT of time. i HAD to remove the throttle body and getting it to fit perfect was kind of a chore cuz i'm a little ****. BIG thank you to jon for givein me the hoes.....i mean hose.

nice, you should have told me that you needed the throttle body hose as well. I have that one. It looks shorter than the one that you're currently using.

glad everything went ok but you will need to take a look at the hose every now and again. If you can I would invest on an STI A/C line but the way you have it now should suffice .

Hey Justin,

Doesn't look like I'm going to make it as the coilpacks haven't come in yet, but shouldn't need the air tools, since your adjusting CO and doing IC stuff......LMK when you do your DP and exhaust is ready to put on I'll bring the air tools then.....I'll try and drop by if the packs come in today or tomorrow and I get them on and the car going

L8rz, Mike
