well only the elbow is Greddy, and bov. The other pipes are from the XSpower and i grabbed a pipe from a member that extended the elbow to the stock IC posistion. Also i LOVE pictures because they dont show anything bad :-). My paint is horrible and i have dents,chips, and scratches all over the original faded paint. Wax,polish, and shade made it all that much better for the camera. I forgot to add the nightime shoot, which btw ended up sucking because my friend doesnt listen when i say "you need something to steady the camera...free handing it will make it all blurry", to the reply i got "o i know, no problem". Well out of about 15 pics and diff posistions only a select few came out. here they are:






and yes like cblake said they are only 18x8, and thanks for all the good words guys. Its nice to get feedback after all the work that goes into our cars

Waay nice FD...

Your turn signals - I can't tell, but did you paint part of the crome inside them black? They look awesome.

Has XSpower been proven to suck?

haha, the cardboard is only there to hold duct firmly against IC, currently in a test phase. Also the signals are the smoked lense dark housing version of the upgrades. Not sure if they are still made with the smoked and black...??? Thanks for the good words...and i havent even begun my plans for this FD ;-)

o and if i havent already mentioned it...i was VERY happy with my performance gain with the XSpower IC
