Yep just a 3" - 2.5" reducer from the F-TOP to the aluminum IC pipe.

Are you going to cut that ftop end off and weld the hard pipe on there later?

I don't think so, I want to keep the piping modular so I can easily disassemble for any maintenance. If I start having issues I'll come up with another solution though.

updated post 3 to include some Transmission details, hopefully we can get someone with a manual to chime in on what's needed there.
As far as your tuners section, my DM tune has worked quite well with no over boost issues in 12k or so miles, my mbc is fully closed and has been since the turbo has been installed. There are guys running uni, revo, and DM all successfully. I think much of it is dependent on the aggressiveness of the fueling as Doug had mentioned to me a long time ago.

I just bought, used, an f23t and it came with an install kit. Is there anything I would need that goes along with the install. I was going to read Rotaryknight's thread, but holy fuck it is long. I plan to install in the spring, but I still need to replace the clutch before that, so we will see if it really happens in the spring.

I bought a used one and it had a bunch of shaft play. Check that before installing.
Mainly take your time. The write-up is long, but it's not as bad as it seems. Getting the correct tools is another, always easier to do a job with the correct tools. I would spray all of the bolts you can get to for a few days to a week everyday (pblaster) before your install.

I have yet to check that, but I will do so before installing for sure. What was your course of action once you made the discovery?
When you get a friggen F23T you will get tremendous amounts of shaft play...the good kind

I don't follow. Are you talking about a boner?
No...never
