Next I installed the DW65c fuel pump, Grimmspeed air oil separator and Electronic Boost Control Solenoid.
Pics of the Fuel pump install are below.
First thing you want to do is drive around or take the gas out of the tank. You want to be on gas light or the notch above where the gas light would come on. Then let it sit for a couple hours so the pressure inside the tank dies off.
Then you take the back seat out by undoing the 2 pull clips under the seat towards the middle of the driver and passenger back seats. (be careful with these for they are easy to buckle.) Once the seat is off this is what youll see.
You'll have 4 screws on what looks like a speaker was my first thought hah. Undo those screws and remove the cover and seal. Like below.
Once that's done you'll have to undo 3 clips and a sensor. (its best to use shop towels or cloths to put around the plugs when undoing them for they will still leak gas)
Undo a few screws and haul the assembly out.
Next undo more screws, clips and a sensor on the pump housing. Empty the gas and wipe the housing out with a cloth.
and this is the stock fuel pump.
once thats all done install the new pump and basically do everything I just did but in reverse.

and back into the new housing.
Installing back into the tank.
and done!
Next was the EBCS, Plugs and AOS but first the plugs.
First what you want to do for the driver side plugs is remove the secondary air pump. There are 3 bolts you have to remove along with a sensor and a clips in the back for the air pumps outside air casing I guess you can call it. To remove the casing I think it was either a 10 or 12mm bolts. The 3 bolts around the pump are also either a 10 or 12. Once that's removed it will look like this. Just move the air piping to one side.
Just move the air piping to one side.
Also remove the battery for extra room.
Once that's all off this is what you are working with.
A ratchet with a pivoting bit is the best thing to use. I didnt take pics of removing the plugs but I will explain it.
First thing you want to do is get a small screw driver with a little pick at a 90* degree angle. Undo the the clip on each plug but be careful because the clips aren't very tough. The clip will unclip towards the front of the car. Once clips are undone move them to one side. the front plug is pretty easy. Undo the bolt on each coil pack. The front just comes right out. The back one turn about 180* degrees and it comes right out. Now, the front plug is fairly easy. Slide the ratchet in and wiggle around until you have a solid fit. They shouldn't be put in too hard. Once the thread has broke you can take the ratchet off and just twist with the bit. There is a lot of thread on the plugs so have patience. The second plug closes to firewall. You'll have to wiggle and get your hand in weird positions to get it in. Once in and got a good fit follow the same process. Be careful not to drop the plugs. If you drop them they are no good. Follow the same process to install the new plugs. For the passenger side you remove the intake and do the same for that side.
Next was the ebcs and AOS. Didn't really do the install for these so I didnt get that many pics. But the instructions that Grimmspeed include and fairly easy to follow. Along with DIY on youtube really help as well.
But here is the AOS.
Installs right where your oil cap would be. Also the plug for the aos is the same size as your OEM lugs.
Hooking the lines up to the AOS
Next EBCS. Once again I was doing the plugs while my buddy was installing the aos and ebcs, so not many pics.
This is the ebcs.
Installing the lines.
and the EBCS installed.
and an engine bay shot of it all installed.
