Thank you; over 100lbs down from the first pic on this thread...
I want to congratulate your success story! Keep it going until you reach your goal.
Remember afterwards, maintaining this will be a life changing ordeal. it wont be easy, but you've gone this far, there's NO turning back!
The installation of the do88 Plenum, Y-pipe, Turbo Inlet pipes and the Intercoolers is done! The R&I of the OEM stuffs (ie., Bumper/airbox/wings) was the hardest part.

Actually, I did the opposite with silicone spray to get them on. Except for missing 4 small hose clamps, the fit is excellent for all of the pipes (hoses). I didn't have to pull on anything to fit.

The APR diverter valves were the right call! The overall performance is more responsive at any throttle angle. More whistling sounds! =)
Hey there, it looks like we both did the same mods in recent times. Also did the Do88 stuff and APR diverter valves... Grinding the intercooler cages was a drag. I too had missing items in my kit (hose joiners) which I had to improvise with a ton of black electrical tape.
How was your bumper installation and fitment? My bumper never sat back on quite right. Even after a trip to the dealer where they had to remove the bumper and re-install the edges/seems are not lining up and flush like stock. I didn't say anything as the fault is towards the kit and not I or the dealer.
Either way, I'm enjoying the kit and the car is ready for bigger turbos if ever needed.

Yes, there are more things under the bumper for sure so it won't ever be like stock. Careful fitting and adjustment can get it really close. Glad to hear you are enjoying the kit!
