Mac,

Where did you get that inlet "pipe" material from that feeds to your turbo? I assume.

Just take my time over bumps and dips, it does get a bit annoying but oh well...

It's just made out of coupler adapters and some piping I had laying around, nothing fancy.

Just a guess but probably on Shine autos website but it looks like they may have changed their site recently. I would guess that if you called them they could give you more info about it. Im sure they can still make them even if they don't list it on their site any more.

Edit: here is a link to their old site: http://72.29.75.187/~grandmig/shinea...om/type1fc.htm

Any change to their site could only be for the better.

Considering how great their products are, their site is/was awful. How hard is it to take a picture of each product you sell, and list a price? I mean c' mon it takes longer to pack and ship the damn stuff.

I'm still not convinced that my alternator is 100% wired correctly. My lights dim and my voltage gauge is all over the place. Once I get everything sorted out I wouldn't mind doing a diy type thing.

Not sure to be honest, I'll try and asking my buddy that made the video next time I see him.

I got it directly from Shine Auto. They have more in stock than what they have online. Just call them or email, they're pretty good with customer service from what I remember.

Your wheels are fine, you must fully strip the factory grey powder coat off and then begin the polishing process on the bare aluminum. Have patience or give up now lol. I think I have a good 40 hours onto painting and polishing my Vics.

I've moved twice since I picked up my vics, and they still haven't made it on the car.....but soon.
