Crazyness, the SII doesn't have any filled cells on most of the grill. I guess they figured that was not such a good idea.

Nitrous Build:
Zex Black Out Kit. 55 shot hoping to go to a 75 shot
Zex Automatic Bottle Opener
2 Zex LED Purges. Purging out in the front one on each side by the oil coolers.
BHR Throttle Body Spacer
Zex Window Switch. Set as of now for 3500 to 8200 rpm.
Nano 3000 Sport System. For those who don’t now what the nano does it adds nitrogen pressure to the nitrous so you have a constant pressure throughout the whole time you are spraying. More power and more consistent.

Engine:
BHR Ignition Kit
AEM Cold Air Intake
Agency Power Under drive Crank Pulley
Turbo XS Cat Back and Mid Pipe
Racing Beat Header

Exterior:
10,000k HID Low Beams
3,000K HID Fogs
Red Pin Striped Wheels
Blacked Out Tails and Corners
15% Tint

Interior:
Red LED lights
Custom Lotek Gauge Pod
With PLX Wideband, Glow Shift NOS Pressure, Glow Shift Fuel Pressure

Suspension:
B&G Lowering Springs

That is it as of now. I am going to be at the track this Saturday for test and tune I will keep you posted. A lot of time and effort went into this build so far and it is not done yet. I need to thank Anthony C for being the brains behind it all. He put in many sleepless nights working and customizing. Even the gauge pod is a custom Lotek pod. All the new mods were wired to a new fuse panel under the center console. The next thing is to find a tuning option..... Not going so well as of now; been in talks with power mod. Any question e-mail or post. It has been a long process and it is not done. Here are some pics I took real quick i know they are bad but its from my old Iphone.
So how much hp u gain ???

Can I get a better Pic of the Cold Air Intake, I just got one installed on my 09 R3 and I think that the mechanic is missing a Hose, there was only two conected when the Instructions show 3. My check engine light is on and I can't get it to go off. Any help or Idea's here?
