Ok let's update this with some of the almost must buys before installing your kit. I'm currently picking all this up.

Spark plugs
Coolant tank
Boost gauge
BOV?

I know I'm forgetting things...

T bolt clamps.
Help me lol want to make sure I have everything.

NGKs are what they suggested me a few pages back.

I got mine in I am guessing the same day you did. I haven't unboxed it yet to make sure it delivered without getting too banged up. The large box is pretty heavy

Still wanting to tackle the installs together? If so I truly am up for an install party lol. Onebadgsx could mentor if he was up for it as well?


Step one for me will be to make sure the spacers and bracket are correct!!

Yeah I am about to open my kit up now to make sure that I have the correct parts. I was trying to get off duty as fast as possible so I could come home just to look at the box hah

IMO, plugs aren't a must, just recommended. I do think the tank is a must as it WILL leak. And the oil should be changed in the motor at the manufacturer recommended interval, same as the Paxton. That info is in your manual for both.

I'm down for an install party too. Just not at my house, lol.

Lets set this up lol. If we need to we can do it at my friends house where I planned on doing mine. He is up for a huge group install. He loves this type of stuff.

It sure will be nice to have someone there who has done it before.
I plan on doing mine the first weekend of June.

Hopefully I'll be able to make it. I get to Houston on the 29th and will probably still be getting my house put together the first weekend in June. Hell, the transport said it'll take 2-11 days to get there with my car so I might not even have it yet.

Although I guess I don't really need it there to help with installs on other cars, lol.

Im down as-well. I'm in San Marcos but am willing to make the drive. I have friends in the Spring area i can stay with and make a weekend out of it.

I won't be ready for another few weeks though... i want to get my kit polished before i install it. Also need to order a BAP, Plugs, t-clamps and probably a tial Q.

Plugs for sure. T bolts at least 4 for the first ones off the blower since they are a bitch to get to. All others are easy to swap later. The q Bov is awesome and works much better than the stock bypass. No need for a bap on 47 lbs injectors....

Do you have the Tial? Also, im going to be running id1000s. Kit came with vortech maxflow BAP, but i sold it because i saw a bunch of people having issues with it. Probably going to pick up a KB.

Already have the canton tank, and all my hoses and fan shroud are already modified from the previous owner.
