Ruimond: I believe this is their newest revision of the BTR86Z adjustable RSB. They packed it when I said I'd come to pick it up. It is the 22mm one.

Another mod should be arriving shortly (next day or two).. :P

Ahh cool....now that you installed it..it looks the same as the site photo. Just thought the hanger things were different, but their the same. Its lucky you don't have DF210's or TEINs or it might be getting close to the ground :P lol.

Does it feel much better around the corners or is it not noticeable?

I currently have the bar on the softer setting. But even with the softer setting, I feel the car is more planted around corners. The rear end is definitely a tad stiffer, and I find that the car is more willing to turn.

Its probably the ugliest rear sway bar out there, but it does what it's supposed.

Hehe nice choice on the AFE intake.....i have one too, actually i haven't cleaned mine since i got it. Still looks fairly clean. How much was the spare Dry pod? Im assuming that's the dry version too.

Thanks guys! I definitely feel a difference in my lower-mid range, and an awesome deep throaty sound from 4k onwards.

I actually got a CEL after the install.. because I got so excited and forgot to connect the MAF sensor connector back on, LOL. But that's all taken care of now.. no more CEL, just some addictive induction noise. :P

Ruimond: Yeah you're right, the spare filter is also a ProDry-S. It was $25USD. Did you reuse the hose from the engine to the intake or did you use the new provided 5/8" hose? And also, how did you mount that thing with the blue plug? Mine's just sitting snug under a few clamps atm.

GTL05T: It's a dual pod setup.. haha jk. One's a spare.. so I can switch it out and wash the dirty one - zero down time ftw!

Cool, that's not bad. Ummmmm yeah pretty sure the hose was just re-used, but i can't really remember now. The blue plug seems to be zip tie'ed onto one of the other tubes. Here's a pic of mine if you wanna compare. Haha.
