My last good M/C crash was at Spring Mountain in the winter, cold slicks are hard, so is the ground. Got to drive home with my arm in my t-shirt made sling and a broken collarbone.
Beware of cold tires.
I found this as well and aborted trying to jack the car up as I started to see this point flex. I suspect this was for frame manipulation during production.
The bolt that goes through the aluminum front subframe is a solid lift point.
Got the CEL on day 2 at just over 100 miles on the car since the pipes installed. I drive 125 miles / day, so see how it goes the next few days commuting to work. Hope it resets and clears. The new Cats and pipes still giving off a strong odor when hot, so hope they just need to cook a few...
Think I may hold off to do the JB4 until I have the TB, so I can do the TB, plugs and JB4 at the same time. The hard part is out of the way at least. Yeah, it would have been easier with a lift, but duable from the garage floor.
Got the Catted Downpipes installed. Other than it was a PITA, mostly just to disconnect the upper O2 sensors, that was half the battle, going back together was not bad at all.
OMG it sounds good! No CEL yet, but just put 30 miles on it. Got to travel some tomorrow so will have about 250 more...
Copper plugs will need to be changed much more frequently, the OEM iridium plugs will last much longer, but they may not be the best heat range for higher boost levels. The trick is to find one step colder iridum plugs, been looking myself, but not found anything yet.
No difference noticed. The UPF63R is just a little higher quality with a thicker shell, possibly slightly better filter media (from what I have read).

Try to look at the bright side, at least it didn't hit the roof or side pillar and put a nasty dent it in. The windshield can be replaced with almost no evidence it was ever touched.
Just did mine. You need to remove the two MAF sensor connectors and unclip from the top of the airbox, loosen and and push back the two flexible intake hoses, with the hoses pushed to the side you can get to the two screws under them much easier. Here is a trick, only back out the screws until...
