Post Hondata IMG and Thermostat Install.

I just did the Hondata IMG and thermostat install. It really wasn't that difficult once you figured out how to get the bolts for the IM out. It was fairly time consuming and I did it over two days. I was so excited afterwards because my car started.

My back on the otherhand was decimated by the continual leaning over.

I started taking pictures but kinda gave up because I just wanted to get it done.

Make sure to retighten the rear bolts on the IM after a few miles. Those are the hardest to get to and can be hard to get them completely tight.

^^^Especially important since that's where the coolant enters the head...

I went to put the coolant in and started it and after a few moments passed I saw coolant spilling out from the bottom of the car. I had to tighten the bolts a little more. Everything is good to go now.
