Default Just bought Macs, What else do I need?

I just bought a set of Macs with ORP. I already have a set of 2 sims. What else Do I need? Do I reuse the stock gaskests or do I need new ones? What about the bolts?

Whats this restrictor mod and collector mod I have seen talked about?

Also, if anyone knows the link to the install document Id appreciate that too.

Thanks

There will be more than 1 change so it won't be valid. This weekend I did !FRA, Direct Flo Lid, Ported and Descreened the Maf, Installed my Mark Shaners S2 Ported TB, bypassed the lines and I'm putting in a 160 thermo this weekend. I have a cutout sitting on the table also.

2 weeks after I ran the car bone stock it dyno'd 296/319 <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

I'd love to see 340/350 after the headers and cutout <img border="0" alt="[pimp]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_pimp.gif" />

If you have a lift they will go in from the bottom with a little help from a prybar and a BFH <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

I have no problem loosening a motor mount and jacking the motor to get them in. Thats almost norm on any car <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

I've had two sets of headers on and off my car multiple times. Still using stock gaskets and bolts with no problems.
