I will, but the catch can and header will have to wait till tomorrow. My back is already sore from bending over the engine bay for 5 hours. However the new motor mount certainly has a massaging effect on my P5 now, heh-heh. Now my hatch rattles at idle. But the car feels just that much more solid and stable with the motor securely attacthed to the chassis. All in all, a good days work.
What have you done to your P5 today?

I got your text Evan and I knew exactly what you were talking about. I did it with the intake mani still on.... That s*** sucked lol. I'm going to be installing the catch can tomorrow as well most likely. Gotta figure out how and where to mount it though...

I reeeeally wanted a 13W7 for my P5... but having kids will warp your finances... now I just want my p5 to run again..
^Thanks! I had a hard time deciding on what to go with. White just looks so CLEAN. Once I get boost, I'm going to shave and tuck the bay.
-thumbs up-

Props. A lot of work but it always looks so good when it's done right.
began the install of my free sub/amp. i ran the power, i'm not in any rush to install it since i wasn't planning on putting a sub in for a long time. i just happened to get a free one.
where should i run the remote turn on too since i have a stock head unit?
