Really,

Really? mine took me less than 5min to get old one out and new one in. What issue did you have?
The front pipe being in the way, even with the little cutout on the heat shield it definitely took a little bit more. Didn't take me long to remove and install, but definitely isnt as easy as the 1.5T.

Ahh yes, i learned my lesson with the Fk8, i use a jack and a block of wood to move the front pipe up to the oil pan to give yourself that extra room to remove that front bolt.

Just ordered the Mügen Performance Dampers, Blitz front duct line, Blitz CF front bumper Arches, to go with my Blitz CF front bumper. Excited for these to get here.

BTW, the Wunderladen Street RMM feels great, shifting point has improved, and traction. , NVH is really minimal, i feel with a few miles and hard launches it should go away. I’m sure the Mugen Dampers will help furthermore.

happy Sunday everyone.

found time in my busy schedule to install my Seeker shifter bushings, and Hybrid Racing detent springs. Also gave the engine bay some TLC.

Whoa, those seeker shifter bushings look hardcore! I have my hybrid detent springs sitting somewhere waiting to be installed.

Curious on what your take on the detent springs and seeker cable bushings are like? I daily drive my FL5 in city traffic and don't know if I want it to feel super racecar which is why I haven't installed that stuff yet.

Much more aggressive and mechanical feel as one would feel in a race car. Gear and gate feel is increased slightly. The most felt is the shift return to neutral, centers right away.

That’s an impressive list. Can’t wait to see it I can confirm the dampers absolutely quite down the Wunderladen RMM. You might even forget it’s there

I’m just getting back from a long needed vacation. Saw this FL5 while at Pitt Race last weekend. Only FL5 there in a Sea of FK8s. and to keep this on topic I got in a mopar beefed up looking exhaust spring to fix an annoying valve spring rattle I have in mine

Installed the Infinity Designs turbo inlet today. The CF weave doesn’t go exactly the same direction, but it still is not offensive to me. I think it looks great, not as good as the full Infinity Designs intake though.

Now I have to find CF radiator cooling plates that work with the Gruppe M intake or modify the ARP ones.
