not trying to be a debbie downer at all.... i have one ordered so I'm obviously hoping for the best... but, you have to be careful with butt dynos. you can peak power the same hp but lose a little bottom and it'll feel like it gained on top to the butt dyno, so you walk away saying damn, i gained some up top but in reality you lost on bottom. not saying that's the case just kinda saying I hope this one proves out on the rollers.

I just received my dual popchargers. However I am having some trouble with installing the heat shields. I can't seem to get them to fit. I can fit it around the the air inlet, but I can not get the radiator attachment to fit. I guess I am not good at installs.

Before you install the shields into the car, put that "L" bracket on the shield but leave it loose. Now, install the shield and tighten the pinch clamp bolts all the way down. Loosen the bolt for the radiator support and slide the open end of the bracket under the bolt. Once that is in place, tighten the radiator bolt then go and tighten the nut/bolt on the shield.

Thanks for the info. However im in hawaii and i dont think i have a autozone here...any other suggestions or places where i can pull codes? still giving me the CEL light...is it still safe to drive the car..?

Hey bro not sure if some service stations like chevron will have the diagnostic tools for your car. Not sure if Checkers or Napa have test equipment as well.

I got both of mine at the same height by two methods.

1) I loosened the bolt where the factory filter goes on the fender and that allowed me to move some.

2) I literally pushed and bent the brackets the way I wanted them to get the filters to sit exactly the same on both sides. I am not talking about a lot of pressure but enough to accomplish the task.
