*UPDATE 3/7/08 Agency Power Pulley Install*

I Installed the agency Power pulley i had, took about an hour. Probably could of done it in 30 mins,but i was messing around with some other things. Its very easy, i just followed the DIY on here simple as that. Also took those slots out of the airbox as well, probably get a K&N drop in this weekend, no intake for now, b/c i plan on getting one of the turbo kits so no reason for a intake now.

More mods to come. Stay tunned i'll be updated this thread only.

Good job. Since this is a build thread, you should just put your updates on your first post.

any update on the Tanabe front sway bar? Did you install it yet?

Do you need the stablizer link for front and rear?

Also the rear was bolt on according to your 1st post?

Does the tanabe rear swaybars (F) n (R) fit perfectly with the orginal package, I guess not....I checked couple threads and many ppl go with the energy bushing.

What is the size and type that you bought for the energy bushing sets for the rear sway bar and the front sway bar as well?

I heard you need the END LINK too if u lower the car due to the sway bar changed , what is your thought on this?

Pretty sure i pm'ed you yesterday, if not.. In the energy bushings i got 30mm for the front and 20.5 for the rear.

About the end links, i'll probably get them anyways, but i'll install the front sway and the springs without them first and let you know.
