Christmas is the season of giving, share some stage 2 with us. LOL. So basically from the pictures, you bought the following...

1. Dampened ODPS pulleys and accessory pulleys, windshield washer resoiver, new belt, etc.
2. Green filters.
3. Evosport shorty headers
4. Ignition wire kit: spark plugs, etc.
5. Intake spacers
6. SL55 Y-pipe

Can you clarify the list and maybe the prices?

You should also consider getting a Quaife LSD as well, since your car will probably be spinning tires with the big increase in power. It will make your car much more controllable.

Let us know how the phantom grip lsd turns out for the C32. If it can be made at a more competitive price than the Quaife LSD, then I'm sure others would be interested as well. The phantom grip seems like it's just a LSD conversion kit, not really like a Quaife LSD pumpkin. How well do you think it works? I know that Quaife makes a very good LSD.

it will work as well as any other factory limited slip. it will be enough to spin both tires on dry concrete.

Hey C32, any chance of getting a pic of those EVO plug wires out of the bag. I really wanna see what wire connectors they used to connect to the plugs.

I know you are getting hammered with requests....just thought I would ask.

Thanks in advance.

It isn't that hard as long as you have the tools to reach down there. It's a very tight space, and you may have to dissassemble some of the suspension or steering linkage to get to the bolts.
