The worst of it was getting the oil pan off. Other then that, just some cutting and relocating a few things. You'll have remove your sway bar...if you have the same cross over. Also, your...If I'm correct, the traction control box will have to be relocated. I had to modify my horn bracket and remount horizontal instead of vertical. You'll need to pull up the harness with the alternator wire in it. That will have to be extended for the alt relocation. Its all the small little crap ya know? However, it seems I keep running too stupid **** that needs to be taken care of. Next is my fan and wastegate then I can finish up, but I still need my 2bar map and my PCM sent out. Start up is close.

Sounds good. I will post up my fan install once I get it. Im going with a 14" Summit with a CFM of 1585...draws only 7.90 amps. So I will probably just wire it up to the factory plug. My trans cooler will be sitting next to it on the rad.
That fan wont work well, the stock fans are around 3500 cfm. There is a thread going right now on what pusher fans to order. Two derale 12" fans is the way to go. What did you have to do to get the pan off? Have any pics of where you tapped the pan?

Pic of my oil pan:
Here's a couple of pics I used for reference.
These pics were found on the forum. Searched and searched until my eyes bled lol. Used was a 1/8 NPT to a -4 AN fitting for the feed and -10AN for the return. As far as the fan goes, the car isn't a daily driver. Maybe its time to go back to the drawing board. I only I have space for one fan.

Everything turned out great! Is that the 6LE grille? That is the same way I want to do my grille but I wish I could find a grille that uses stock mounts and not the screws so I can cut more out. Keep us updated with results, you going to dyno it?

Thanks fellas. I'm glad I listened and did my research on this build. However, I still have some odds and ends to wrap up, but all-in-all its been fun. The grille is in fact a 6LE Design. Right now the car is being towed this weekend for some exhaust work and I trimmed the bumper a bit and added the BMR chrome rad shroud. I threw on my K&N filter yesterday and I am awaiting my fuel pump and assembly from Lonnie.
Threw the shop light in to show in detail...no neon glow LOL
