Default Just about ready to install....

Well I figure you guys needed some pics to make sure my stories are believable and all. I just have to get some fuel injectors and a fuel pump/or BAP and I'll have all the needed parts. Here are some pics of everything waiting to go on!! I plan on starting this weekend or coming week. What do you guys think? I'm excited to get this started!

Are you going meth with your blower? I hope you are seeing that you got no intercooler. But overall should be quick man. Nice work getting this thing together this fast!

It's Christmas for me, 0949er, haha.

Teej, I didn't have plans to intercool or meth at this point. I'm betting I'll have it tuned down for street driving (maybe a street tune and a track tune...?). But we will see what happens when it's done and tuned and I see the numbers, haha.

Just a friendly word of advice:

When your car heats up (after 10-15 min tops of driving) you will be making considerably less power then you think (due to the excessive IAT temperatures)

They do have basic intercoolers that you can buy cheap on ebay, just need to get the plumbing I believe. You could find some good info in the pipes&boost section. Congrats on the new toys tho!
