Yes you can still code "start in sport" with the update that disables the ability to code out another start/stop.
Okay I thought I was tripping, got a 2026 and I disabled start/stop but if you switch back to normal car still shuts off. I only drive in sport mode anyways but good to go I didn't do anything wrong

Picked up a ‘cheap’ 5” kitty cat free downpipe and swapped from the catted AA DP.
I get it….the turbo sounds and the exhaust note is bonkers. Love it. But man it smells real bad heh. Probably swap back at some point...yes you can make fun of me for being a wuss :)

Can’t tell if there is more power on MHD stage 2, probably shows how well the catted AA DP flows?

Did you do it yourself? Kicking around the idea of picking up a spare trans and doing this over winter.
Yes. I picked up a spare trans to work on myself so my car wouldn’t be down. It was actually not too bad.

Some snippets of trans going back together.

It is time.
Nice! I finished my install a couple hours ago. A couple tips, people complained about the difficulty of popping the coolant hoses off the bottom of the OEM manifold. After popping the clips on them, what I did was put a very heavy duty zip tie around them and then pulled the zip tie loop I created. You can also use this trick on the hose you disconnect underneath to drain the coolant. It makes it so you're not in a cramped area trying to pull on a tiny hose that's stuck on tight.

Connect the hoses to the manifold first and then route the hoses down to the connection point. Make sure you don't get the lines pinched. A 5mm ball end hex makes tightening the manifold bolts easier. Also don't tighten anything down until you have everything in place and threads slightly started. You absolutely need a magnetic pick up tool to set them in place. The grumpy vet garage video is pretty solid.

Great pointers! I followed your advice and they actually came without MUCH difficulty.

OEM manifold is out now and I just taped the valve openings to be safe.

I will buy Grumpy Vet a beer. This job would’ve been really hard without this video.

I put a pause on the process because I FINALLY got the adaptor cap for the Master Cylinder and will flush the brakes so I can put the car down on the wheels and work better to install the Manifold.

I hope Vacuum filling the coolant is not going to be hard. I will do it based on the videos.

Installed a Eibach front sway bar. Have a Blitz brace bar coming in hopefully this weekend, not sure if it’ll do much but it’ll look good lol.
