[QUOTE="BlowerMan, post: 16305010, member: 189818"] Just finished my install on my 2008 last night. Couple tips: Factory strut brace does not fit, even with JLT spacers With 2.6 or 2.7 pulley, stock lower, stock belt fits with stock idlers. Not a K100852 belt like VMP told me. Now I have a $40 wall ornament. Use a dremel to clean up coolant tower. NOT a chisel and pliers, Blower case squashed the IAT2 connector, have to screw it into the manifold more. Blower flange hits the stock harness guard behind manifold, have to move it rearward. Get some washers in the kit with all of the bolts. Come on VMP!!! EVAP fitting is a hose barb, not a quick connect like the factory, so you have to either cut your factory hose or run a new hose. Pulley with kit is extra, not part of the blower price. I thought all blowers came with one pulley for no extra charge. BJ is tuning it, stay tuned for dyno results. [/QUOTE]
