Man, I am jealous....
I was one of the first to get mine and I'll clearly be one of the last to install. Work is crazy busy, can't get home until after dark these days. Don't have a garage to work in at night (truck won't fit in my little shop) My weekend is booked solid already.
Could take a sick day, but that isn't really fair to students.
Maybe next weekend..........

How are you supposed to high tail it out of there easily when you've poached one of them der big 8 pointers, and then you do'nt have the short throw in, and you start missing shifts, eh? dont ya know.

got mine put in last night. took about an hour and a half to install everything. on the 2 bolts that are hard to get to i went in knowing what i was going to do so i had tools ready. i knotched my floor pan out a little with a dremel so i could get the socket in there without any issues. this little step only took me about 5 minutes.

at WOT i can hold 17psi of boost between shifts now. before the short throw the best i could hold was about 5-7psi. so its a BIG improvment for racing purposes. haha. i don't have any shifting issues at all. downshifting is good and up shifts are down right AWESOME!!!! i will see about some tire roasting videos this evening..
