Their charge piping, Intercooler, and intake all look good but **** that exhaust is loud, It may sound better in person but right now I am not feeling it.

 

3 inch turbo back, it's not that loud he's got a resonator to mild it down a bit lol

 

It may not seem lout to some but to me it is.

 

It is really loud, I LOVE it! It sounds like my diesel truck. My dad, a diesel mechaninc, was super skeptical about the exhaust but he likes it. He says it sounds like a CAT diesel engine. I might have to go get a muffler welded in though. The cops are militant down here about loud cars and stuff. If I had to do it all over again I would have gone with their exhaust with a magnaflow muffler.

 

OK! so I am going to be finishing up everything tomorrow. Unfortunately the tuning cables aren't going to be in yet so I have to wait til next week to tune it and drive it and review it. So I'll be posting up pictures of the finished products hopefully tomorrow afternoon with some tips/ tricks to get everything hooked up.

Other than that I can say that right now everything went on well. Its all very straight-forward as I expected wtih just bolt ons and now I'm just awaiting my Trifecta cable. So If you have any particular pictures you want to see let me know. I know people want to see how the intercooler and the cold air intake are positioned, but apart from that I'll try and get some other close ups if needed.

 

Ok so I finally finished. I got a late start today cuz I took a nap after work this AM. Here are a few shots... Before you say anything yes its dark out I just got the last headlight bolts in as the sun was going down. And my car is pretty dirty so please on the last picture try and look at her inner beauty...

By the way click the pics to make them bigger, I hate threads with huge pictures.

First up is the Vent to air BOV. Its a 52mm Turbosmart, made in Australia.


Second is the top of th ecold air intake, turbo inlet side.


Third is the top of the motor...


Amd last is the intercooler. Notice it does not hang down at all below the bumper. Nice to know if you are going to be lowering the car in the future or putting on racing springs.


Tomorrow I will take more pictures but I am hungry, its dark, and I need a beer. I will entertain any and all questions about the install.

 

Looks good man. Congrats! Now we need some logs of that intake

 

WHERE THE HELL DID YOU GET THAT OIL FILTER ADAPTER LIKE THAT!!!. I WANT IT!!!. How come I never seen that thing before that converts it into a regular filter and moves it out of the way... SWEET!!!
I seen one on EBAY but do you know of any that will FORSURE fit for the LNF? do you need to do any plumbing with pipes at all which isnt a problem.. I want a complete kit with the hoses and everything. This thing is so bad ass. And hey What will be the oil spec then after you put this on, any guesses off anyones head I can just check when i get this thing to get it up to the full mark on the dipstick, just wondering if its going to be over the 5 quart mark. Also what would be a good filter for this set up?

 

Maybe I am missing something.......But what in the hell are you talking about? The blue and silver thing on the black pipe? If so, that's the blow off value, not an oil filter.

 

Oh boy haha. yup that thing just goes pshhhh. how hes mistakeing a bov for a oil filter adapter? i dont even know what hes talking about haha.

i saw a pic of one guy that had it relocated but i dont see it being worth it.

 

I believe he's talking about cardelino18's car. He has a remote oil filter in it. In the pictures it looks like the BOV sits on top of where the stock oil filter is.

 

lmao that explains it. i was looking for that for like 20 mins to show to this guy but couldnt find in because it was in here. i fail haha
