i had a question guys. did you guys keep that resistor that is on the passanger sides engine harness? It should be by the air pump. I was wondering if you guys kept it connected since pump is gone.

Whee. I got my new present installed :)
Meth kit!
So I got my kit installed, I found some nice bottles to use for my meth and washer fluids here are a few pics.
The bottles are in the upper left corner, mounted the pump next to them..
Close up of pump. the Bottle on the left is my 50/50 meth/water.. the smaller is my washer fluid.
Here is where I mounted my nozzle.
Last thing to do now is recirc my bov..
Custom intake is done as well where I get the coldest air
I'm excited.. it's looking really awsome now.. Almost looks like I know what I'm doing!? When did that happen.. lol

Now there - that was fun. BTW - this was bought used from importshowoff who blew his motor... the Wastegate leaked like a seive - mean it wouldn't budge I had to rebuild the whole thing.... coincidene? The Turbo has 1/8" of shaft play, and the BOV is a total POS.... but the design is nice.
While I was in the garage, the friendly neighborhood detailer came by...
I wish I was better at detailing my car.... those guys are good.

I like that shield for the hot side. Was that from Esmeril, or somewhere else? I want one. Also, nice job on all the hoses, beautiful engine bay. Makes mine look like crap!

LOL - those blue couplers have to go - along with the turbo, bov and wastegate. Then it will be a nice kit!
Yeah I am a glutton for punishment - but I get free beer!!!!
Why yours no starty? We did this one in 2 weekends - and most of that was fixing broken parts.

**** those blue couplers SUCK! and also the whole cooled side sucks. You have to get the right angle otherwise the 2.5 & 3 inch pipes wont fit... I had to cut my front plate so i didn't have to deal with that. Im also gonna replace my wg/bov with Tials in future.

Cold side piping wasn't much of a problem for me. Only part I thought was hard was getting the last connection to the throttle body, which was very tight on couplers that havent been worn in. After they were broken in, I was able to take it off and put it on without problem.
Why did you have to cut your front plate? What did that do?
And TY kane for the link, might just be grabbing one of those now.

can't get them on the pipes. I did have to use Alum tape to cover 1 section cause one coupler was so tight. Ordering a new kit soon.Pics.
And another problem i find for people that are lowered:
Sort of at an angle, but i estimate it at being around 3-5 inches of ground. not so good.
