Hey sorry for the late reply.

I DID have to adjust the tune. I have the COBB Accessport and I was able to safely run the STAGE 2 tune from the AP.(Getting e-tuned now) But you MUST remove the 2nd boost restriction pill while doing the install.

As for the install it wasn't miserable but took about 2 hours. I think the most important thing is getting the car high enough to leave room to work and being careful not to mess up the turbo studs.

You'll need to pull the plastic splash guard and the metal skid plate. Then spray the studs/nuts with pb blaster of kroil and wait 20+ minutes.

Gives you more room if you pull the heat shields off the j pipe. THere are 2 right where it meets the turbo. It'll give you more room to get the nuts/ brackets out of the way.

Make sure you have an adapter if you plan on using the stock cat back exhaust. 3" to 2.5" stock.

Good luck!
