AWE 700 kit installation teaser

Knocking it out this weekend, and so far very smooth. I learned my lesson from last time and soaked all the exhaust bolts with PB Blaster for 72 hours first. More than half way done and going to finish tomorrow. Here are some teaser pics

That's a big project. Are you doing all of this work yourself?

Thanks guys. Honestly this is a walk in the park compared to the first time I did the exhaust install. The first time I did it I broke some of the studs on the turbine housing and had to remove the intercoolers and turbo to fix it, and this time is easier since it is essentially the same procedure but with the benefit of having made all the mistakes already.

^ Agreed! Can't wait to hear the progress, and I can't even begin to imagine what this thing is going to feel like on the street.
