LOL why wouldnt it close?
The 321 SS battery tray we provide just gives the clearance needed. Clears the obstruction above the trans.
It lifts it about an inch. Fits perfectly. And cuts down on the uneccesary bends for better flow to the TB

I truly hope the fitment of your kits is good. I keep hearing of other tuners kits having to modify brackets, exhaust bolts not lining up, exhaust leaks, etc.. This fitment shows the true quality finish that few kits have. Have you had any fitment issues? like the downpipe bolting on perfectly.

Very good questions.
Our kit comes preassembled. What do i mean by this? The turbo manifold and downpipe "drop in". The wastegate is already attached and plumbed. The FMIC is a direct replacement. The IC piping is specific and R&D'ed for that vehicle and equipment supplied. The only issue anyone will have will be with connecting to an existing exhaust hanging on the vehicle. A kit is sold and shipped without prior spec to the modification to the vehicle. BUT we have found that by providing a downpipe that is preassembled and bent under the car with a flange works best. We also supply a flange to connect to the existing setup. All that would need to be done is to cut further down the line and weld in the flange. NO leaks And the ease of installation is at hand.
Everything else is all bolt in to the stock setup.
We feel confident you should never have any issues.

I'm going to do a small edit here. The battery tray IS NOT taller by an inch. I misunderstood Andy and the only difference is that the stock tray has an obstruction under it. With the new tray it is allowing the piping to clear with plenty of room. Sorry for the mix up.
It is the same as the stock dimension.

All righty,
Got the new AEM in today . It is the third box to be tested with their ignition fix. To my knowledge Buschur and SFP have the other two.
As I've stated earlier many times we havent had and dont forsee any problems with the units and their reliability. We will keep everyone informed.
The following posts will be kit details and pricing.
They are now available right after new years and we will post another thread with our vending status
Also i would like to wish everyone a happy holiday week(s) and a great New Year.
