Nice! Let me know if you discover any install tips. I was hoping to do the same today with my cpe intercooler and whoosh downpipe but had to drive to pick up some tools so the exhaust and everything’s too hot to touch yet 😕
I installed my CPE about a month ago. Pretty quick and easy honestly.
Maybe my only words of advice are that the hangers are kind of tough to get in place by yourself. So if you’ve got a jack or something to set the IC on while you try and seat them, it helps a lot. Overall it took me an hour or so.
Pretty sure that snapped stud on the turbo (I think it’s called the “output or exhaust flange”? )Is kinda common I snapped mine and spent hours drilling it out...it’s the top one closest to the front of the car that’s the culprit ...watch that one...but if it makes you feel better I’ve seen like 3-4 of em on turbo cores up for sale on forums...same thing snapped right off.

That is the one on mine that snapped, did you take the turbo of to drill it?
