BOV and Charge Pipe Install

Looking at pulling the trigger on the ECS tuning charge pipe and BOV kit. I don't have any tools out here so I was wondering if anyone local knew of a good shop or wants to trade labor for beer or a small fee.

Did you ever get this worked out? It's a pretty easy install and doesn't require much beyond some torx bits and a flathead.

I got the parts in. Me and a buddy are going to go to the hobby shop on base since he's active duty. Going to do the intake, charge pipe, and cat less down pipes in one weekend hopefully. Also ordered some BMS wheel spacers so I'll probably throw those on while we have access to a lift.

OK. Make sure you don't overtightened the clamps - it's easy to crack the OEM plastic piping. Also, the O2 sensors are really sensitive and may be damaged during the DP removal/install. Not cheap.

Good advice and thanks a lot man. Were you out at the meet? If you want to come out when we do it and have access to base you're more than welcome to. I will supply beer and food of course.

Appreciate the invite, but I mostly do my own thing.
