You already have thm so just put them on! The charge piping is more for reliability reason and basically the samething as the IC. You really won't feel a difference in the flywheel though.

Pretty sure I read somewhere that our stock flywheel is already decently light compared to others. But then again I could be worng.

Like i stated before, the charge pipingand IC are more a reliabilty thing. The plastic one can crack under high boost and a new one will prevent that. Samet thing with the IC. The IC has plastic end tanks that actually have blown off. Both of these can cause boost leaks and that's the reason for these replacements.

If you want more power move onto meth, E, cams, turbo, or a more aggressive tune.

Cams from ZZP are actually pretty decent. Really haven't heard anything bad about them other than they work and do what they are intended to do.

Zfr or a bigger turbo will always net you more power regardless and are definitely happy time makers.

Meth is quite reliable if you run the right system and make sure everything is always running right. Aem makes a really good kit that allows you to monitor the kit and lets you know what's going on.

For our cars and tuning, a clutch is always something good. I was tuned on my xcar for 8k miles and just at the end of summer my car started slipping bad. Then again I track my car a ton and that really isn't good for the clutch.

No problem man!

You'll have to remove the splash guards on the bottom of the car to remove the majority of the pipes.

just the 2 clamps and 1 screw and pull it out from the top. i never had to pull splash guards off however you will have to remove the bumper for the intercooler so might as well do both at the same time. the bumper off may give you more room but you dont have to take it off for the charge pipe its like a 20-30 minute job max

the acces for the lower clamps is to small. maybe you have girly hand to get there. but mine are not that girly.
