They are besides the obvious they're bigger and aluminum or whatever material they are. My friend thought mine would be easier then his because there is more room but he said mine were actually harder and took alot longer. There is alot more to it then it looks.

I don't mind giving you a hand, I have the garage and tools so it won't be too bad. But we will see how mine goes first. I "may" do mine when I installed my intercooler.

I will reach out to MF and see if any local people want to come have an intercooler install party
