cp-e downpipe help

[speed6r]

I just recieved my new CP-E catless DP bought it off the "For Sale" section of this forum for $389.00.(******* steal imo) I was just looking to pick a few brains about:

Actual HP Gains,
Known Issues,
Cobb AP maps,
Install tutorials/Problems,
Anything you wish you new before to install.

Oh, And I know there a few threads here, and a few threads there, that have some of this info (yes i did search and read) I'm looking for updated intel!

Thanks a Million!

Mods I currently have:
Fujita CAI (Not currently installed)removed for warranty of the CPU
HKS BOV currently set to atmosphere
Cobb AP (Not currently installed) Fried my cpu last time it was installed
Test pipe (Not currently installed) removed for warranty of the CPU

If it came with the install guide, read through it. It will save you alot of frustration. There is a support bar under the car that should come off. It is up front near where the exhaust comes down and the drive shaft come off the tranny. It has four bolts. The first cat and the short pipe come off easy. You will obviously need to remove the innercooler and heat shields to get the other cat off the turbo. I then removed the heat shields from it to make it smaller, disconnected the passenger engine mount, jacked the engine from the bottom and pulled the engine forward to get that piece out. I also took the heat shields off the alternator for clearance. I didn't have to remove the alternator as some documentation states.
