that's pretty cool...are you flushing everything?

What's involved in molding the bumper into the fenders?

 

Looking very nice man, keep up the good work

"That's gunna look sweet" CHEERS!

 

sorry for two threads (wtf) slow server?

 

let us know how that ic works... its sorta small is it not?

 

molding the bumper and fenders takes some time. I have done this on a few cars and the best way ive found, is to drill lots of small holes in both the fender and the bumper on both sides of the seam then fiberglass over both the inner and outer sides. this kind of stiches the two together (prevents cracking).

 

intercooler is 36x6x2.5 i think it will be ok. it has more fluid volume than the stock ic and the water injection will also help when i am running high boost.

 

So you molded them together while they were off the car and then dropped them on? I'm easily confused...lol.

That technique really sounds interesting. I'm in the process of making a custom bumper and it may be pretty helpful to do my fiberglassing that way.

 

nice work. Looks like alot of time put into that car. Any reason why you didnt go with a bigger size? Was it because of the custom bumper and/or you have the water injection safety?

 

the intercooler core has almost 1/3 more volume than stock, it is bar and plate, it will be mounted in the front (not heat soaked on top) and i will have water injection.


and yes you caught me (its the largest i could fit in the bumper)

 

its all good. Whatever works for you.
What water injection system are you going to be running? Also how do you think the lighting will work through the FTPs? Since the slot is kind of small or did you enlarge them?

Keep us updated.

 

four 2in HID bulbs in each side.
