Thanks. We spent several days talking with ECS throughout this ordeal, I'm gonna stick with brackets the shop doing the install made. When you get the kit check the mounting bracket bolt holes. On side note, if bolts don't appear to fit (be too large) you'll have to run tap all the way through from the back side. You'll notice the bolts will actually thread into back side of bracket, then they stop just before coming through. I believe these were 8mm bolts. When bracket bolt holes are chamfered (new machine) they mess up the holes on front side. Normally this is corrected before making out door, but mine made it out the door before being retapped at machine shop. That one was pretty easy to fix just takes sometime and oiling.

Drove car for couple miles with base tune last night. Need to get couple hundred miles on McCleod clutch and flywheel before doing WOT tune. So, haven't taken car past 1/2 throttle, but no complaints. I do like fact you'd never know it was there just cruise driving. I was kinda worried about BOV noise, but not an issue at all.

I had a slight issue with the front mounting bracket on the supercharger not quite lining up with the bolt holes, contacted ecs but ended up just drilling them out and making them work, wonder if this was part of the "bad batch" and if they would send me a new one.....
