Nope not yet. I put my intake and IM spacer on but then got a weird chirping noise. So took everything back off. I do have my CC on. Eventually when I am not swamped with so many other things...I will put it all back

That was my next question, are you going to be installing everything even with the noises from the engine?

Well the noises stopped when I pulled the spacer off. I am 95% certain that is where the noise was coming from. I will be ordering a second gasket so I can sandwhich the spacer between two gaskets and not worry about the RTV. My headers and exhaust will go on after I get them painted in header paint. Im at 83K miles so I may wait until I am closer to the 100k mile mark

I used two gaskets and put a thin layer of RTV to ensure the seal. So far so good and that was probably 10,000 miles or so ago.

I gotcha.

I'll have to check out Jewel's videos.

I think RTcat600man has a pretty good setup as well as Lil' Nasty. I'm sure there are MANY more with great setups....not trying to leave anyone out. Those are just the ones I'm familiar with and can think of at the moment.
