Yea Buddy!!!
Nice to finally see in the car, I can't wait to hear how it feels on the first trip after your tune next week!

Zack you will be the first to know for sure. You have been a huge, huge help in this long drawn out process. And I definately suggest anyone that needs performance parts to look up 365 motorwerks Zack will hook you up with good pricing, fast shipping and you can call him for any questions you may have. 365 is the sh%t.

Don't forget the hose clamps on the intercooler piping. Kind of an odd design for the front mount. Let us know how it turns out.

simplyred

did you have the front mount on the gst? if so then you must have learned that you will need to get some T clamps for the intercooler and all the piping. those are the safest and most secure.

asked if i had the front mount thought i would post pics for you.
