[QUOTE="Benz_tech, post: 14482589, member: 154696"] Tools where a non issue for me, I have it all as well. Blower install wasn't to hard either. The elbow and tb had problems due to lack of literature and organization. When you order the gt500 kit, the gt500 tb, the coupler for the intake, and the pulley belt all have to be ordered seperately. Not a big deal, just have the whole kit complete? I didn't recieve the tb bolts. One of the intercooler to blower bolts was broken in half and threads chewed. Vacuum line placement a lil unclear. My vacuum line placement and colors didn't match what they stated. Tb armature too thick, needed to spend money at a machine shop to fix. After install throttle cable is **** eyed rubbing against inner edge tb aramature. Had to bend throttle cable braket into correct shape. No tb seal or instructions on how to install. Elbow even without remote iac installed hits fuel rail inlet. It required Me to bend the rail inlet. Tools were not the issue, just what seemed to be bad engineering fitment and explaining these potential problems. They were all easy fixes, just figuring out the best choice of choice of how to fix these issues after spending 4k on a product that doesn't fit properly and paying for it to be machined is irritating. I can send you pics mystic if you pm me, I can only use my phone for pics and they don't send on here for some reason [/QUOTE]
