Ok guys. i installed the downpipe on saturday. you were right nuke there is a lot of stuff to take before getting to the heat shields from above.i did it at my friend's shop it took him almost 2.5- 3 hours to get it done no rush . he actually had the downpipe out in less than an hour. turbo spools way faster than before for sure. but i have a straight pipe from the turbo and its too loud and i dont like it at all. im gonna have a muffler shop either put my stock mufflers back on or go with two round type mufflers one each side.
after the installation the engine bay with the heat shields looks 100% stock and if you didnt know the stock downpipe has 2 CATs in it very restrictive!. I'm waiting on Tony to keep me updated with stage 2 i'm more than ready!.
BTW im selling my VR racing tuning box sent me a dm if interested im located in miami fl instagram: @danlmt1092
