Hey Folks!

Received my pipe kit from CvFab on Friday so i was able to get these installed yesterday.
Hardest part of the install was the darn C clamp setting the Bov to the flange (snap ring pliers for the win)!

Looks like a fun time! I am waiting for the weather to break and stay warm before I tackle the Intercooler install!

Looks good. I am trying to find time this weekend to do mine. Question... did you replace the rivets that need to be drilled out with anything or did you leave it alone? How about the zip ties that need to be cut?

Yes, I drilled out the rivets and replaced them with the Zip ties that come with the IC. The ZIP ties are hefty size so I did have to take a bigger drill bit to make the hole a bit bigger in order for the Zip tie to go through.
