Not yet trying to figure out when I'll have time and the shop has time. They're an hour away from me. Also trying to work out a deal for 4 pulls in sets of two so I can pull twice then install mY intake and do two more pulls (instead of 3 pulls a set at $75 and having to pay $150 for 6 pulls)

Intake installed. Noticeable difference in pull. Install took the entire afternoon. I did solder instead of crimping though and I used a ton of heat shrink. it was in the 90's today and at idle I was running 112* intake temp with an 82* ambient this evening. Went out for a quick run and intake dropped down to 80* with the same 82* ambient temps. I am pleased. Looks awesome as well.

What did you have to solder to install the intake?
