Got mine today looks great! Sorry about the violin symbol. Have no ideal how that got on there. I got to figure out if I want a metal color or going to do red.

I'm waiting for the testers to give me their feedback on the installation, in case I need to modify something to make them easier to fit.

I have been building a custom fiberglass airbox. I really don't want to, but I must. I'm also using a evo fresh air intake. Curious if the oem tube fits around the throttle body

A week might be too soon to let the ECM fully adjust to the plenum. try 3 weeks.

I have read on here it takes a little time to fully let the ecm adjust to the new accessories. You wouldn't get a true reading dynoing the next day.

Yes, it takes at least a week.
You will feel it when driving, the idle will be stable and you should feel an improvement.

I started the install today and had to re-read all 14 pages here. First mistake I made, is not realize that there is o-ring. No wor.ies, got to get some silicone or gasket maker. 2nd mistake is that I have not purchased the 3" intake tube and silicone elbows.

This is why you need this product
Size matters! Though I haven't had a chance to test due to other mods, there is no doubt I'm going to pull at the least 20hp making it the best bang for your buck item.
That's 996 TB vs 986 TB
