hope she fells better. you've got my number so keep in touch over the weekend. i am going to remove the entire intake manifold from the vehicle. since i have to take off the bottom part to replace the injectors i figure i might as well take off the whole thing to allow more room to work.

you will need a new intake mani gasket if you do that so make sure you get one or reusing the old one might create a leak.
Also can't you just remove the fuel rail, pop them out and reinstall like all older hondas?
If it's in the manual sorry I didn't read it completely yet

to gain access to the fuel rail you have to remove the lower portion of the intake manifold.

Well I just got F***ED!!! FedEx calls me: "Hi, do you have a customs broker?"
"Uhhh...no?"
"Oh, well we can do that for you, but it will take a day at least for it to clear then we can send out"
"WTFFFFF"
So they are going to try and make it urgent and then I have to go pick up tonight....DAMMIT!!!

call fedex and tell them you're paying 280$ to get the package today not next week and that they need to get their shit together or reimburse you ...
They should have taken care of this or there should be some special type of paperwork with the item that states it should go through customs right away.

Thats BS man... I would complain... start getting beligerant and talk to the Supervisor... I had a problem with UPS once where they were trying to deliver my package to the wrong house 3 days in a row... After the 3rd time I called all crazy and even tho the truck was already on its way back they sent him back to my house to deliver my package. Do it man... F fedex... I hate them too. I ONLY deal with USPS now.

x2!!! a big company would rather lose money by making things right with one customer, than SCREW them over and lose a multitude of customers via word of mouth. make a scene and you'll get what you need!

so i just had to order 4 RC plug-n-play injector clips plus overnight shipping =130.00
whoever packed the injector upgrade needs to be strung up (j/k). i hope i am the only one with this fiasco. i would hate for others counting on this(Illusive) to go through all the trouble and find out that they cant do the install.

Dude cancel your order! I spoke with Oscar and Clips will be sent out and you will be receiving them shortly.

And we already know that nobody is going to exceed 193 whp on this kit from KW's totally custom setup. Well, I guess one could add nox... 
I do need to change my fuel filter (was reading the m/t install instructions).
Yah, someone get the boxed version installed with some pics and feedback soon!!

Just to confirm they should be in the package with everything else or they will be sent after?
Illusive has a header installed so those injectors are a must and if his kit makes it here today without those I won't be able to install it all for him tomorrow
