Awesome pic!! Very nice looking with those wheels. Paint looks flawless from your pic.

Can't go wrong with Tein Flex.

Also The water lines are sick too.




I'm probably going to go with an intercooler and piping from Driftmotion, If i had the money i'd defiantly get the boostlogic NA-T pipping kit. But money is tight.

As for the exterior of my car, this is my latest pic, before selling my work's to another member on this site to fund my turbo build. It's on Tein Flex coilovers.

Wow! If my Black had looked that nice, I wouldn't have painted my SC Anthracite. Looks like you have a good handle on things, Only go cheap on what they can't screw up.

Ok, got a quick question for any experts out there...



It's a tight space between the compresser outlet and the frame. It seems like i could fit a 45 degree coupler int there and be set, but the coupler will be REALLY close the the turbo mani. It's a really tight fit.

What's the best way to overcome this? can i just use exhaust wrap on the pipe thats really close to the coupler? or will it still burn threw?

you can heat wrap the manifold, i think that would be the best way to go....

Should I heat wrap the 45 degree coupler as well? As long as there's no drawback to doing that i think i will.
