I can see you've read this thread

That's sorta the name of the game with the FC though, so you gotta expect it. We spent over a year developing and testing this kit, and it's exactly what we wanted, and exactly what a lot of the FC owners I talked to wanted.

About 4", Odyssey battery size. Nothing super extreme.

That is such a ridiculous deal. I need to see if this deal on coilovers is going to go through, otherwise that money is going to YOU for a sick *** front mount.

When I see the engine hood pictures I'll see if they get my credit card numbers again.

Looks like a steal.

Agreed. How many of those do you have to purchase? I just don't want to finally have the money, then be like "Oops, we are all out!" :p

Alright! Here are the pictures! Sorry it took me so long guys. I blew up my car *grumble* and have been busy lately.

*NOTE* Don't forget that this kit comes with the battery tray, intake elbow, and air filter that is in these pictures

I have plenty in stock

How about this, if I can get 5 people in on this, I'll do free shipping anywhere in the lower 48. Eh? Eh?

More than that and I'll start cutting some more crazy deals.

This is the best one I have, unfortunately no piping on it in this pic, but this is
mounted and you can see the holes that the pipe goes through.

The power steering can stay, only AC has to be removed.

GReddy generally uses 50mm, 60mm, or a combination of the two depending on the kit. Ours is 58mm, so it's in between on the high side. You'll also note that they use steel piping whereas our kit is all polished aluminum piping.

Here's the parts list from the GReddy manual for their FC kit made for their upgraded turbos. I believe their stock turbo kit uses the smaller piping.

My greddy setup is 60mm from the turbo -> IC, then from there it comes out on about a 70mm to the TB. Not sure why it was like that.

do the tubes have (or can they have) the same size nipples welded on as the stock TMIC? I have my BAC connected to one of these and the BOV to the other, and would like to keep the vac set-up i have right now. Thanks

You can see in the 8th picture up there near the top that there's a pipe and nipple to accomodate the BAC.
