My FD is back with HKS FMIC

My FD is back with the HKS Front Mount Intercooler

Looks like something from Mad Max but the HKS kit is awesome. Dropped my intake temp from 60 degrees to 15 degrees.

I'm very happy.

Here are some pics.

Also my C-west kit has arrived as well as my Combo lamps etc and carbon defusers and carnards

Just gotta get them painted now.

Does your GF work down at Mazda on the shore? I had my FD in for some work and she introduced herself and reminded me about joining.

I can do all I have to do is but the condenser and **** back in. But don't need it as I don't drive the car much. Just use manual Aircon and put the windows down.
