Sports wont be as low as the SS but lower than the VWR.
Looks good :thumbsup:
I did my swap last week and I agree, it really cleans up the front end.
Looks great :thumbsup:

Quick update. Good Guy Cobb is replacing my AP at a super discounted rate! So that's nice.

034 motor mounts came in a day earlier than I expected. I had my appointment set up for monday since I wasn't expecting the mounts til tomorrow.
The shop said I can bring in my car tomorrow though, so that's cool. Means I get to do some break-in driving this weekend.

Uninstalled the 034 billet dogbone insert. This cheap mod has received a lot of praise, but I do a lot of city driving, and the way it made the car feel when accelerating from a stop became annoying. It's not so much the amount of vibration it created, but the way that it resonated through the cabin that I disliked. And yes, I torqued it to spec.
I have noticed that it is much easier to break the tires loose and downshifts are not as crisp without the insert, so it does work, but for my goals I'd rather have zero NVH. Hopefully when I replace these P-zeros I'll get some better traction. I plan on holding on to it, might be something to put back on if I ever take the car to a track since it only takes 5 minutes to install.

OK just a quick update on the COBB AP stage 2 hesitation, Not sure if my supporting mods were not efficient enough or what but i went back to stage 1 high boost and wow finally running how it should be. So i don't know if i was running to rich and that was causing it to hesitate from a stop and or burning through coils. but its running really good now!:happyanim: but I'm not stage 2 :thumbdown:

Put in my downpipe and 034 billet dogbone insert. Car feels a tiny bit stiffer. Downpipe sounds great and butt dyno approves. Haven't loaded stage 2 file yet, getting RSR DIY clutch installed next Saturday. I was dreading the upper inner bolt on the turbo but if you take the passenger axle out of the tranny it's a peice of cake to get to. I also torched the bolts till they were red hot which helped a lot even though I am only at 34k.

Remove the front part of the intake, and just use a long extension with a socket from the top.
If you want the most amount of room though, you can just pull the battery & the tray and it's even easier to get to
Removing the axle seems like a lot more work (IMO)

I see what you mean but we just took the tranny end out, left it in the wheel hub. It's 6 triple square bolts and it just rests on the subframe.
