Using the SVT header made the wideband sensor easier ... I put the bung right at the end of the header (had to cut a bit of the separator plate ... that gave me the right distance from the block and it is amazingly easy to get to, if and when I need to change it. I kept both stock O2 sensors, but of course had to do the EGR delete. Thanks again for the SVT cat - made the SVT header doable and affordable.

Nik ... it is running really lean so I dare not push it on the track until I get a proper tune. Having said that ... the "mail order" tune Pat at Steeda gave me has the car idling and running fine ... just need to dyno tune for safety and power now, and that happens this week. But this year for sure I'll see you at the track ... I'm also missing a BMW meet this weekend at Shannonville.

Mike ... that actually is a stock SVT intake that comes with the big blower kit ... under hood temps are problematic with JRSC and they say this is the best solution ... frankly, it came with the JRSC and I didn't want to stretch the budget further for a true CAI ... the shorty ones apparently create additional problems with IATs - especially with extended WOT such as at the track.

Anthony ... thanks for the generous offer - I hope someday to take you up on it ... it sure is in need of some TLC in that department.
