Yep. My iat2 on the highway would be like 145-160 lol. I was at the track before I got the interceptor gauge. I can only imagine how hot it was doing numerous back to back pulls at the end of the night. I know I tried to touch the blower earlier in the day and it burned my finger but I thought maybe it always got that hot.
Also my cat was clogged then and the insides were rattling around lol

Dual pass install was a bitch... Finding that hidden bolt took me like 45 minutes lol. Luckily I didn't need to go out and buy more hose since I reused the old hose with the nice bends in it for a couple parts. Wasn't nearly as hard as doing a header downpipe install by yourself tho. **** that was a head ache and a half plus claustrophobia being under my car for the first time doing something other than an oil change.

I had the midlenght. It fit but it was still a bitch to rotate and get in place. And it was ZZP's old shitty one so it took forever. 2 of the header bolt holes were too close to the primaries and u couldn't get a socket over nut to tighten it down so i had to use a wrench which would turn it like 5 degrees at a time. Then to make matters worse I found out the hard way that the bolts at the flange of the header r like welded on so I didn't have to hardware to finish it. Then it leaked like a siv and sounded ******* awful since it was a 2 bolt flange.
Oh and I couldn't get the ******* o2 sensor off the downpipe. I did everything from penetrating oil to torching it but it never loosened.

(he pulled hte old stuff out, then was having troubles getting it shorty header in place... which is where I came in.

if you have a twenty dollar bill you NEED to get rid of, I'll happily accept it, but my offer was for you to have it for free...
