Installed mine about 2 months ago! It was actually kind of fun putting it all together. Makes me wish G.A.S. Made more stuff like that for our cars
Looking forward to getting one now.
Question though. What's the difference in the o-rings options ?

Found this on their site

I opted for the fluorosilicone because it was only a few more dollars with the kit
Awesome. Makes sense

I had no idea they sold the o-rings separately. I just recently spent about $40 on various size o-rings to find the perfect fit. 2.5mm x 58mm ended up being the winner and I'm using two, one in the OEM position that slides into the manifold and a second that compresses against the face of the manifold. Did it to mine and Rando's car and we both thought it idled smoother.

Just throwing this out there, but I came across a thread on this forum about an o-ring that will work as a replacement for our DISA valves. My DISA is in perfect condition so I don't need the rebuild kit, but the o-ring did need some love. So I went to Autozone and spent probably $2.50 on this beauty. It's a VERY snug fit, I actually had to tighten and loosen the DISA a couple times before I got it to seat right, but eventually it did and the idle is super smooth. Just an FYI if you're looking for a nice, quick, cheap and local silicone o-ring fix.

Well if anyone wants Viton ones that fit perfectly hit me up. I paid $3.72 a piece for them so make it $4 to cover a stamp.
