Installation took about an hour. Vibration at idle has increased but throttle response is immediate without any hesitation.
Thumbs up for Brown Dog.

Any questions?

Just the air intake box. It's two 13mm bolts and a 13mm nut.

Oh, you mean to say headers haha. Didn't understand.

OP, did you go with the poly bushings or the super flex? I wanna get the super flex rubber because I'm not a huge fan of the constant rumbling at idle

Poly. There is a slight vibe at idle but the mounts are brand new. Originally I tightened the thru-bolts to tight and the vibration was so bad my interior rattled horribly. I loosened them and the vibes are way less.
