Damn, I wish I could be down there to check this thing out before you ship it off. You going to take some good videos before customer picks it up?

About to start work on the FMIC piping. All 3inch aluminum piping. That is a Garrett core too. All the room we got! Got the INGS bumper inplace. Here we go!

Here comes all the good stuff! We are wrapping up the custom intercooler pipeing, turbo mounting with downpipe and connecting the exhaust. Hopefully all the "plumbing" will be done mid next week. Then we can attached the exhaust with those bitchin Titanium Renesis Exhaust tips from Knight Sports

I see an AC condenser so I am guessing yes and the steering will likely be the RX-8 one I would guess due to the electronics but who knows. I am curious what bumper they are going with.

i bought every single part i ever bolted on my 8 from this guy. vivid racing is the best. anything you need, not that you dont already know, but they can get it. they got custom seat mounts built for me to put my sparco's in. there was a bit of a mix up with the parts at first but they made it right in a jiff. good good people.

Wiring, wiring, wiring. The factory harness was botched and with this Haltech we have had to rebuild everything. The wiring is coming along as we get closer to the finish.
