wow fuck that

 

Damn, only took me about 3 hrs to remove my bumper, stock fmic and pipes, then put my larger fmic in and put it all back together.

 

Probably because you have more room in your engine bay, having a tiny turbo must help some I kid i kid!

 

Turbo is in the rear, but yes, its tiny as fuck. That thing is a pain in the ass to remove

 

Keep in mind guys this was a custom job. Not a bolt on kit thats like over a grand they sell for this car. Had to make everything fit and work. Relocated the washer tank. Had to trim the shit out of the bumper to clear the pipes. Also went in and cut some plastic that was there before to divert the air up into the tmic. I cut it so more would get to the radiator. Now my ECT's have dropped 7 degrees compared to what it used to be. Thats great considering theres another one there to block its air flow. Also if you look at that "honeycomb" grill in front of it. half of it used to be solid since the crash bar sat so low. Had to go in there with a dremel tool and cut every one of them out. That alone took me over 2 hours. Also took off all the mess under the hood for the tmic. Now air flows up into the engine bay.

Now im working with Cobb Tuning getting this map tested. Cant wait to see what this thing can do
Also got my oil catch can on the way. Have a intake manifold spacer and throttle body coolant supply block off kit sitting in the garage. Gonna do an egr delete when all this goes down.

 

Sounds good. Name the spot.

 

need to reclean the car, or atleast wipe it down. I'll see what other people are doing, they want to get a photoshoot done too.

I'm down, I wana see this intercooler setup

 

sounds to me like you really took your time, paid attention to details and did the install right!
