As usual you are misinformed.
You CAN use shorter dog ones with aftermarket manifolds. Few vehicles have issues with with hitting the fan.
Some people run them with sd's to pull the ubend up.

Eddie, I would run the shorter dog bones with that ic.

Links smart guy? Since apparently you still butt hurt over the whole lowball hud pod thing ehh

Buy the Half set of Vinnie's Spacers, and DO IT RIGHT! Full set if you get on Intrax, and yes, you can fit a full set of spacers with 3" DP and headers, I did it.

*Cough* *Cough*

What are you getting at Dave?

However if you are goin intercooled like Eddie is, dog bones are more than likely the only option.

it's easy enough to space the rear of the hood up a half inch.

More than a few ways to get hood clearance.

A nice addition to this thread.

pretty sure he is serious. that stuff should be added to the first page

I've never had to worry about hood clearance before so I didn't know or look into it. I'm sure I'm not the only one.

just run hoodless.


but then again..
if you can afford an FMIC setup. you can afford a new hood.

Anyone running intense racing coilovers? I found a set for $400 I wouldnt mind picking up.

they don't have the sway bar mount. boooo

I dont need a sway bar mount. Is $400 a good deal on them?
