I install mine last Thursday. It was very simple to install. I have the two piece liner version as well. I was thinking of getting more of the liner to finish off the open side next to the ECU box. I think I can get some from an auto parts store. I was also thinking of improving the insulation by getting some heat shielding material and cover the stainless steel plates for even more heat protection.

Impressions: The throttle response is very noticeable. The throttle seams a bit more twitchy in a good way. There is no hesitation. It feels great. Acceleration is brisk and the supercharger whine is a great addition to the sound of the car. In combination with my NRP exhaust and intake, the car sounds a refined monster. Not too loud but really noticeable in terms of quality. I will be doing some dyno testing this coming July and I will let you guys know what I get.

IMHO,
Carl
