looks good but you should paint the hood dampers black or something. the green clashes with the rest of the engine bay.

i have some black hood dampers. they look OEM. great product

Maybe his stock pipes were toast.

Put an intercooler next on your list.

Did you have any fitment issues with your Tein hood dampers? Mine needed a slight modification of the fender for the hood to sit flush. But I'm very pleased with the product

i got the hood dampers for 120 from vivid racing out here in chandler AZ, umm the piping was 400 shipped to my door from pettit, and the BOV was bought from a member on here (works great by the way). no there was no real performance gain, but i was getting a hesitation/ bucking before boost. and now that i swapped out the OE piping and BOV its not bucking at all. so no performance, but it looks good, and its not messing up on me. and for the hood dampers not fitting, how did u install the plates? did u put them under the plates that bolt to the hood? i messed that up at first, all u do is remove the top nuts and then bolt the Tein plate right in the place where the top nuts go.. the insets on the plates are perfect.
