I went to the graphics shop and got the stripes on the hood rounded last week. I made them myself so I was a little nervous of getting the arch wrong, so I got a pic of the hood while it was leaning against the wall and used that to help me out. it looks a lot better now. also, what do you guys think of my valve cover? next up is some braided lines, billet caps and polishing the blower.

 

I am not a fan of stripes but it looks good



Is that an intake system in front of your H/E?

 

to each his own. i appreciate you not hating on it like a lot of people tend to do on here.

 

Indeed. Alot of people forget that when it comes to YOUR car you do it YOUR way not theres. I like peoples opinion but you dont have to bash.

 

I was wondering what that was too.

 

does it work good?

i'm not tryin to hate

 

That's a front mount CAI from cobalt-addiction.com
It makes that blower scream, but I think I want something with a full polished aluminum piping setup.

yeah, it works great, i don't get lean codes and it doesn't cause the intercooler to overheat.

 

I have a AEM brute force replica from ebay and it screams but I kinda like that lil front mount deal. Any shots of it?

 

very nice

 

i'll go take a few in a minute. i'm on the market for something more shiny under the hood if you wanted to trade, I'd pay you a little extra.

 

Its carbon fiber. I was just looking on CA and I might be able to hook that front mount right to where the intake filter is on my brute force.

 

Yeah, the main drawback of it is the flex tubing they send. I hit a cat and it tore it open so we had some aluminum custom bent for it. One thing is for sure, you can't out breathe that setup. I was thinking of painting the box to match the car.

 

Thats the only pic I have of mine..It is 3 inch around. Pain in the ass to install

 

I like that.

 

how much did that cost?!

thanks

 

$115 to my door. Ebay FTW!!

 

*******! that was cheaper than mine!!! you should swap and paint mine to match your car. lol!

The other nice thing is that it stays fairly clean (besides bugs which flake out later) b/c you have a cover to put on it when it rains.

 

not a fan. But cool idea. I'll stick with my true front mount intercooler.

 

It's like I said, I got it for my birthday last year, but I plan on getting something to replace it.

 

The rain thing would bug me. I already hate driving in the rain with me CAI

 

well since the cover just mounts behind the mouth of the bumper it's pretty easy. 60 seconds and you're rain proof. and i've been in some very heavy storms.

 

nice yellow and black combo!

 

thank you.
