HOw d you get it to look like this, did you just paint the things like the fuse panel cover and other plastic things like that? And the blue ribbed plastic that protects all the wires, did you just buy a role of blue?

bought raidiator, intake and strut bar, and blue gates racing raidiator hoses.

bought some caliper paint at autozone.

got some blue silicone vacume hoses and wire looms+tie wraps from ebay the usually come in kits 6ft of 3 or 4 diffrent sezes any color u want.(pm me found pretty good store wit
pretty good prices for these and they come in kits like 4 diffrent sizes)

drop some massive degreaser on it let sit for 10min. scrub wit towel rag. (cover intake + ignition)

use a metal brush to brush aluminum like alternator.

rinse.

take out what u wanna paint covers, caps, heder ect.(i left the fuse box on the left and manifold in just coverd around them very well.)

i didn't clear coat now i regret it would make it alot shinier

replace wire covering wit blue ones and vacume lines be sure to check that vacume lines do not fold under pressure realized that then had to put smaller tubing inside to reinforce it.
battery terminals are easily over looked but if they stand out will catch attention bought 2 for like 10 buck ebay.

drop some mothers aluminum polish on all aluminum sufaces will give u an incredible shine but need some time for a good rub down ie alternator, strut bar u get the idea.

l8ter gonna paint around the engine the chasis or body just to match my new paint job just a quick coat.

find colors that match i didn't want the manifold blue so painted it matte black make sure to take ur time never rush when u rush u miss things and then u gotta doit again ie i forgot 2 clear coat.
side note if u have a 5sfe the accelerator line goes right over manifold if u put the wireloom IT WLL MELT. found out the hard way got a bad scare with some smoke and wierd smell
be safe wait till engine is completely cool to touch anything also found out the hard way

Did you sand any of the plastic pieces or just paint right over it? What kind of paint did you use just the caliper paint?

I wasn't gonna say anything cause he says he just got thru re-routing his piping but damn...
mk7celica - I do a lot of flow path design at work [I'm an engineer] and that bend is really killing the flow characteristics of your system.
Looks really nice tho and it's got to be staying cooler than the traditional setup like I have - so I see what you were going for. It would be much better to clock the turbo if you are trying to get lower intake temps - At least that way you improve flow and cooling. Win-win.

Wow clean. i like.

whats it like torque wise compared to stock motor, obviously over a few thousand rpm it will **** all over it, but what about down low?



Mine as of today, new Crane coil, few things relocated, getting better.

i like it from jup street but once i took the air box off it was a whole different story, it feels an sounds alot better at high rpms when those itbs open up.
Havent got round to cleaning it up yet!

been doing a bit of sanding & polishing lately, came out much better compared with before's.






possible plan is to take the intake plenum off (from the TB just past the quad butterflys) tape off the area which sticks out (got the engine sticker going there again, I missed it frown.gif) and paint it a nice silver, which will hopefully make it look real tidy.
