Keep up the great work! Looks nice and clean. Can't wait for the Stage 2 setup.

looks good for the most part. i do have a couple suggestions.

that red hose needs to go. the nipple on the intake needs to be capped off and the rear valve cover and front valve cover need to go to a catch can. Preferably a vented catch can. under boost you run the risk of blowing water and oil through that red hose into your intake and then into your s/c. not good.

LMAO Faus. I agree with everything you have mentioned & am already ontop of it =)

I have attempted to find a black pvc hose, and have even painted that red one a couple times. It's hidious I agree, but works for the time being. I acutally checked the hose just yesterday, and it was clean as a whilstle =) However, the $15 Ebay catch can is in the mail, and i'm waiting on my new valve covers for black powder coating.

As for trading the IM's, mine acutally has a few areas where the PC has been chipped off and isn't too eye pleasing. (To me anyway because I know it's there) I'm going to be keeping the engine bay nice and black, with a couple highlights here and there (Silver LIM and Polished Fuel Rails). Anyway, I think the red setup looks good on your tib Andre =)

Well, went to get the car tuned on Saturday, but the Neo wasn't adding or taking away any fuel when we tried to correct the ratio. So i've decided rather than spending more $$ to get the stage 0 tuned, i'll wait until i'm stage 2 and need it to spend the money. Dyno around here is stupid expensive. First week of September though, hopefully i'll have the icebox installed, and the neo fixed up =) If anyone knows someone selling a Wideband + AFR Gauge and Boost gauge please PM me the link. Only need a few more items before more boost!

That is one sharp looking car. You certainly have spent a small fortune on the motor and drivetrain. Is it a noticeable increase in power when everyday street driving, or is it something you only notice on a track? I want to do something to mine to nudge the horsepower up a little bit, but my budget is tight and I don't want to spend a lot of bucks for a tiny amount of bang, so to speak.

She's LOUD. Not unusual to set off car alarms when I start it up lol. The Ark exhaust at low rpm sounds louder than my Borla did. The car feels very different from stock. It's by no means a rocket ship, but with the stage 4 clutch & supercharger the added power is very noticeable & instant. My friend put it a good way when I was driving with him on city streets as "Trying to tame something that doesn't want to be".

I do agree with you & although it has taken me over a year to reply to your comment, I finally can.
Paying off boost goodies & paying for a wife took me out of the game for awhile LOL

However here's my plan for spring & i'm currently stock piling :3_pimatyo

Nightshaded Tails (Have them)
Blacked Out 03 Headlights
Black Meshed Front Grill
Black or CF Gas Cap
Possibly Spoilerless
Replace S/C IceBox fan
