So after a little calling around and asking questions I felt to be important, I decided SPE was the best choice for me.
I'll start by saying that their customer support is TOP NOTCH. I had a couple questions along the way and they never once gave me grief for calling multiple times. Also, answering one question AFTER hours just proved to me even more that I had made the right choice, for me.
Install:
Drain radiator fluid!!!!
Remove air filter top half
Remove intake pipe
Remove upper intake
Remove the cast aluminum junction for the intake/egr/cac
Remove rest of cac and ccv piping
Here comes the fun part
Remove both exhaust upipes (my v-bands were siezed, heat and BEAT!)
Remove "upper" downpipe "cobra head". there is a 10mm bolt holding it to the transmission housing, dont miss it! (v-band was seized too)
Remove turbo (cut the coolant hose right in the middle, you get a new one)
