hey guys,
I was looking at this EVO VIII FMIC that I plan to install on the GSX. now when I was in Iraq I had stumbled upon a guys documentary on this install... I have since lost it and don't even know where to start. I know that the first thing I need to do is remove the front bumper and disconect/remove the stock side mount. anyone try this or see any documentation on the easiest way to do this. I would really like to see some guidence before I start cutting and hacking parts that I do not have to. -------------------- You CAN sleep in your car, but your CAN NOT race your house!!!

Well, yes and no Ben. The ones at the local autoparts store are usually pressbent and I know you. You want to do it up right and make it look good. If you're going to spend the time and energy, you might as well do it right. Get mandrel bent piping. It's also a good idea to find someone with a pipe expander or someone who can weld. That way you can expand or weld a bead around the end of the pipe. Intercooler pipes don't like to stay together without that bead, ask Natedogg.
