very nice, not a hard job to do but time consuming imo. I was really careful when installing mine though lol so it took bout 16 hours total, but then again i did my headers at the same time so...

id love to do headers at the same time but cash is a lil low so 1.9 rockers are great for now... in all im guessing this will take me around 4 hours since ive gotta wait for the rockers lol and i need to get my hands on a torque wrench

I'm sure there is a ricerzone aka vatozone aka autozone somewhere out there right? Just rent one from them. Make sure you get the oil out of the bolt threads so the torque is accurate. I'm sure you know that but just making sure! I would also get some of the blue locktite too, just to be safe.

Is that the FWI from WBODYSTORE. if so what did you have to do to make it fit the 04? i want to throw out the K&N CAI and get that one.
