I didn't remove the bracket that holds the stock downpipe out of laziness ...the second bolt was a big pain in the *** to get to. It's not impossible but the rear motor mount is blocking it soo Ill just get to it when I remove the stock mount and install the hasport one. Kill two birds with one stone.
That's the bracket I'm talking about

id advise you put your self on the probity list pay the $50 cause its take a couple days for him to send you a new one (my personal experience)
Nice build thread man. How do you like the Skunk2 intake. I like the look of it over some of the others I've seen on the market, but everyone seems to have different opinions on what will and wont make power in the 9th gen. Also did you have the intake before you had Flashpro, and if so did you have any issues?

I ordered it without the priority cause I'm a little patient but i might just do it to get this tune done quicker before it snows worst.

Thanks! Yes I've had the skunk 2 CAI without flashpro and at first you could feel the power heavy but now with all my mods my car is begging for a tune, it's not running like it did...probably slower haha. But yeah man it won't hurt to have it now. I honestly think this is a very nice looking CAI and with the battery relocation the engine bay is a lot more open now , love it!

Got my hasport motor mount today!
Nice to know, but that means coming up with the money...and then convincing my significant other to loosen the leash and let me modify my SI. She already puts up with my never ending project car.

Ofcourse!!
Installed my mount today, all of the noise the downpipe was making hitting things is gone. Really easy install, kind of amazing how much movement the other mounts allow when you remove just the rear. A lot of vibrations on first start-up but after ~150 miles today it already seems to be getting a bit better. Glad I didn't go stiffer than the 62a.
That mount certainly looks beefy and like it will stiffen up the engine.
