Yep shes done! With the install at least. Needs a tune tomorrow, I have her scheduled.

Well I need to sand and re spray the charge pipe before I mount the bumper again.

Eh on a deadline. Ive been driving my dad to work and picking him up since I can't drive my car real pain getting up at 4am driving 45min to a diff state then driving back and going to school a few hours later and repeating the process at night...also I have to get it tuned. I will paint them before I put the bumper on. I totally forgot to sand the charge pipe so it peels easily and The top two tubes were originally stainless but I like the semi flat black better! Makes the BOV stick out more and those t clamps will be cleaned reversed soon too.

At this point who cares about paint? Just be glad you have a turbo:D

Yes sir as long as it doesn't rain, snow or get really cold lol they can't have the door open if it does... lol stupid FWD hahaha. But they do a sick job on tuning. Ive seen cars gain 60hp when they went in and re did his tune. Once I cough up the $$$ I can take her. She is there right now awaiting behind the z06 they are doing in the morning.

Looks good. If I may make a suggestion, you may want to put a heat shield between the turbine and the charge tube. It's awful close, it may keep the charge down a few degrees.

Also, are you sure you want the boost controler out in the engine bay? Wouldn't you run it into the cabin?

I know bro I was supposed to be getting a shield locally but they guy ended up not having it. Idk if I am going to go turbo blanket or shield. I deff want blanket to help with the heat itself the shield doesn't work as well with controlling the heat as well as it does "blocking" it. And the boost controller hmm I wouldn't mind it in the cabin and some day soon it may migrate there but for now the way it is gives me some sanity and added restraint haha laugh

Turbo blanket would be good if you can get ahold of one. The more heat you keep in the exhaust, the less energy is wasted, meaning more efficiency.

And I do agree with you on keeping it inside the engine bay for that little bit of restraint.

Anyway, good luck on the tuning and seriously, get a real air filter for that thing lol!

How is it different lol? I mean I can see the "filter" being unique hahaha other then that the setup is almost exactly the same as the rest lol. Well I know I'm the only one to run Accel 48# injectors haha.

Hey don't bash my filter thingy hahahaha lmfao. My friend made that idk wtf he was on wink and idc laugh . I plan on going a custom bend to a K&N filter because the air temp sensor is floating in the engine bay somewhere at the moment.

Also we are trying to get a group "turbo blanket" buy going on Club GP lol. Idk how its going might just buy one locally w.e haha.
