Also added to the original post. I do get a air plausibility error occasionally way up top. I'll be tuning for that.

Can't be on the throttle around the clock or can you 🤔?

Thanks buddy. The exhaust in its configuration and the burble soft-mode that don't trigger until after 3500 rpm and the intake the car sounds mean.

Less lag and better throttle response

Had to Dremel out some room for the 90 degree aluminum piping but fit like a charm. There's def some extra horsies up top with air being rammed in now.

You had to take the bar out that is at a 45 on the right side? Any issues with that?

Had to take out the bar and cut the plastic deflector only on the that side. Easy to remove the bar just pull up the rubber with out removing it and use an extension with I think it's a 20 torx bit.

My radiator fins are bent to shit. I'm going to use a straightening tool. It's not just for vanity it will return your radiator to its maximum cooling abilities.

Probably not. It appears do be part of the chasis stiffness and not part of the structural integrity of the frame. It's light weight aluminum that seems to help with stiffness of the front cross member strut. I could bend that bar by hand so it's rigidity doesn't appear to be part of the safety of the vehicle. I could be wrong. Welcome to modding.

I might add the stiffness back with this.

If you do add a front strut bar, definitely post about your experiences. I'm tempted but also really not sure if it's worth it.

Update be careful performing this mod without a tune for it. I'm now receiving too lean condition and air plausibility too high. This could potentially burn out your 02 sensor. I'll post back after it's tuned for this mod.
