PRETTY MUCH BOLTS RIGHT IN, HAV TO DRILL A LARGE HOLE FOR THE INTERCOOLER FAN, CUT FACTORY LOWER AIRBOX, DRILL A 4" HOLE FOR THE AIR INTAKE ASWELL, ITS A NICE KIT BUT IT IS REAL TIGHT TO GET THE HOOD BACK ON WHEN ITS TIME OVER THE INTERCOOLER.

Whats the deal with the chicken scratch welding on the O2 bung? I have always thought BD"s welding hase been nice but that weld looks poor. The rest of the kit looks nice.

You know one thing you should do that I didn't mention is build some kinda screen for the hood scoop. If you are riding in deep snow and stop the snow melts and can turn to ice pretty fast and it jams the fan and does some weird stuff to the electrical system and I'm sure it can burn some stuff up
