yes the wide band is hidden away in the storage compartment along with an el-cheepo boost Gage . They are not really mounted, they are just sorta in there. I only put them in for temporary reference but don’t feel like removing.

As for the hood scoop, the fxt shrouding seems to fit snugly on the STI top mount. It does not fully cover the fins but seemed acceptable to me, I have read up on modifying the stock shrouding to fit but have not done that yet.

yeah the stock scoop is too small for that topmount you end up heat-soaking with the lack of airflow you should run the 2002 jdm hood scoop and shroud or run with a process west one or you can make the stock one work with some African engineering

That was in the plans, but i ran out of interest for this project and want to move onto something else. Also I and am still not convinced that it will have a big effect if i am just daily driving the car mostly highway.
