    So I replaced the HG, and not to jinx myself everything is fine, no leaks. I know the turbo to manifold gasket is leaky, I may need to tighten the bolts.. Anyways, it idles around 500rpm. When I tap the throttle, it almost wants to stall. One thing I know I didn't mark properly, is the CPS...

    Engine bay clean up(what can I remove)

    Yeah, I got rid of the switches already and replaced with the coin tray. I'm not looking so much for weight, but just cleaner looking, less wires and clutter.

    7mgte help/questions

    yeah it lowers it about 2 inches or so. I bought a spare for when I did mine, incase I messed something up or didn't like it, but it was quite easy and I love it. Only hard part was threading it, just took some time.

    7mgte help/questions

    You'll need a metal headgasket installed, that's for sure. My HG blew after a new radiator and putting the boost from stock to 8.5 PSI. So i don't think your stock will support that. ARP studs as well
