Thanks,progress is just the beginning.

Please contact Sam Hagen over at T-Demand USA centralpinesam@gmail.com I am pretty sure they could make parts for your RL. They have a few parts for the KB1 and I am not sure if will fit for your KB2. T-Demand did produce parts for the TSX wagon and I cross checked part numbers and it matched so I wasn't worried about fitting them into my car. So you might want to cross check part numbers or contact Sam Hagen over at T-Demand USA centralpinesam@gmail.com for any custom parts and they are wanting to expand their products to more cars.

Was a bitch to install, mounting holes on the intake housing didn't match up with the bracket so I had to drill another hole and taking out the battery tray to take out the lower portion of the OEM intake tube. The instructions didn't indicate another bolt holding the underside of the tray which was a pain to remove. Other than that I am happy with how it came out and loving the sound on wide open throttle! WOOOOPPP.

Height sensor placement is gonna be a bitch, for sure.

Anyone can recommend a good gauge (eg. 16 guage aluminum or 20 gauge aluminum) for my brake line bracket? Thanks!

A few shots that I wanted to do. Still haven't installed the arms as I am trying to figure out how I am going to attach the height sensors to the arms. I am thinking of a two piece clamp. Anyways here are couple of photos:

Really enjoying the build, the arms and such are beautiful! Nothing like some good old fashioned high quality parts

If you need some odds and ends in the meantime feel free to send me a PM or check us out online!

Are you still trying to dial in the height sensors, or have you gotten past that?

As far as the height sensors, yes they are one hundred percent working at a "successful calibration" and now I need to attached the height sensors to the new arms which I have an idea on what to do but we shall see when I pass the bridge.
