No they do not steve. 0 cutting on the front bumper to install any of the mentioned blowers.

I was very disappointed with the numbers that car put out. I just finished up a kb 2.8, on a new 5.0 bone stock car with roush mufflers and 8 lbs boost, made 608 rwhp in the heat!! Almost 150 more hp then that paxton did with similar boost... Paxton is a great product, the tune must be terribly conservative on that one.. haha

Clint was telling me about that car. 608rw through the stock cats is awesome power with no worries of inspection stuff. If there is no cutting on the front nose piece, that sells me on it alone. I do not want to hack up my car at all. I saw then cutting into that piece with the Paxton kit and it turned me off on it instantly.

Was that car an auto or a manual?
