Yup. Yesterday we installed.

Headers, Turbo, Inlet, Injectors, Fuel Pump and FMIC.

Do you know who painted those headers? I don't think its a high temp paint (although I know even a high temp will smoke a little), the paint was burning off the second I started the car. Lots, and lots of smoke. They were a PITA to install, had to remove the subframe, all the studs and jack the motor up just to make them fit lol.

Glad everything worked out.

Hah, its better now. All the smoke went away pretty much. I had a small oil leak at first but thats fixed and I think that contributed. Everything I've heard says that you'll still get smoke even after spraying with high temp so I was pretty sure it would go away, thanks for the heads up on it.

The car sounds soooooo different. Really has a higher pitch to it, and it sounds quieter. It's gonna take some getting used too. Can't wait til I can actually drive it hard, I bet I'll love it then!
