    sorry for the noob question, but im at my new apartment and have no tools, so i have a friend bringing me one. What size is the drainplug on the oilpan...is looks to be a 15 or so, but just wanted to be sure.

    Also, does the sti hold the standard 5 quarts?

    Don't remember, have him bring 15-17... Also, the STI holds almost 5 qts... put in 4.5 and measure, add if necessary. Also, don't forget you need to take off your undertray.. so you'll need a flat tip and I don't know what size the 4 bolts are....

    the large plastic under tray? Not really...its more of an aero/protector peice. Like if you live on a dirt road, yes. If you are going to be doing 100mph+, yes.
