I just contacted them by email, instructions are online but i used both the ls7 and ls3 brackets (extension rod and bracket) so the instructions wont help bracket wise, but helps to move wires and connect the hoses up ect, after reasearching it, very easy to install

Yeah i painted them mate, nah not really roads are **** up here and lots of lose crap on the roads ruins the sides, happend to my vs and looked crap :(

Mate, how'd you have these painted and how much did it cost? I want to get mine done.

Also, the Catch Can. Worth it? I had a read of that link, it is designed to remove harmful gases from your engine? I don't know anything about them.

Im guessing ur talking about the calipers? lol just some $20 heat resitant paint from a hardware stoor, just masked up everything around the caliper and bobs ya uncle

The can is deff worth it man, you can hear the air rushing into it, mine deff runs smoother and feels stronger through the rev range, basically the pvc system on these are pretty ****, same as my old ecotec lol

Im guessing you have a otr or something? because u get this nice cool fresh air comming in the manifold, then gets mixed with this **** hot oily air (which coats the manifold and tb, ive got a pic of some lad who had puddles of oil in his manifold) so essentisally now it goes to the can and all the oil and **** get caught in there and by the time it gets back the engine, its pretty much fairly cool air again mixing with the fresh stuff, The **** oily air can also reduce the RON of the fuel ur using too, so id deff get it if ur gettiing tuned, as i deff wanted the most out of my malfess tune on 98

Hope this helps mate :)
