That install looks pretty easy with a lift and a stand to hold the engine. Looks like more room to work in compared to my 370Z to install headers.

It shouldn't be too difficult to get to, but you do have to take off some paneling underneath if you need to get to it, but all in all you shouldn't have too hard of a time

Agreed! I need to put my GoPro to use and upload some good pulls!

Thanks! does help that it's covered pretty well by the sub-frame and the steering rack, but I agree it looked new and untouched

Should give approx. about 30whp

Full disclosure here I had 3 other ISF owners come help with the install along with a Master Tech from the dealership that did some side work for me and he brought a chain to hold the engine in place when the sub-frame was dropped and the tall jack stand to hold the engine was a back up, but yes it went easier than I thought it would!

Of course we had 5 guys on the install including me and we actually did 2 ISF's in 9 1/2 hours, we started at 8 a.m. and finished at 5:30ish! I think after 2 back to back installs we could've finished 3 header installs in 12 hours for a group install if needed in the future

I have to say, that was the easiest and most fun time I have ever had installing headers...

Congrats on the new power!!

Absolutely! It's the biggest power mod you can do to your F and it just completes the whole FBO N/A experience other than a port and polish if that comes around and you can tune for it and is feasible $$ wise?? There is not much else you can do to the car N/A other than Nitrous or the S/C kit coming out.

Went out last night to Mexico and the car pulls hard!! What a difference I can't get over how it sounds for one, and the throttle response all throughout the rev range it just keeps pulling and pulling

No, I suck! I need to brush off the dust off of my Go Pro and do some videos of it, hopefully this weekend? I need to get all my mounts and see if I can mount it to my sunroof inside the car?
