Pics of CWC IC

Hey all,
I just got a digital camera and decided to take these pics for anyone who cares.

These are of CWC and ducting installed on my 93 base red.

Also,
the line you see running to the bottom of the exit IC pipe, is my water injection line coming from my windshield washer bottle.

That is very very nice. What is CWC's website again, I forgot (I've been there before but it's been a while)? Also, if you don't mind, how much does a set up like that run? Very sweet, I must say.

Website address: Crookedwillow.com

The setup cost $1250 last Aug(00), For IC and duct. All the other stuff(pretty much anything you think of) $14,000. (parts and some labor; bushings and install, rear brakes, stereo, etc). I did most of work on my car(power FC, 1200cc secondaries, fuel pump, Exhaust, etc).

I mounted the water injection pump below the windshield washer reserve. It hangs down, but is still up higher than the tow hooks. Its in an ideal place; close to battery and right below washer bottle so pump has gravity also feeding it. I mounted it on a steel plate and then drilled 8 holes and pop riveted it to frame. Its not coming off. I found for normal driving, the water reserve is plenty big. I like driving fast, have the water injection set to come on at 10lbs and my boost is set to 14lbs. The system does not use alot of water. This usuage would change for racing, but I dont know how much. I use the 2nd biggest nozzle and the water usuage is way below what I was expecting.
I still need to dyno tune, I am not sure the effect the water is having, but I know I should be able to lean my mix out a good amount.

After boosting hard, I pop the hood, the intake side is hot to touch(cant leave hand on it, too hot) but the outbound side feels like a chilled glass of water. This is before my water injection kicks in, pretty impressive. W/o the duct the outbound side was still cooler than intake, but not alot.

I am impressed, but need to set up a dyno tune session. I believe I can get a good amount of HP still out of my car.

I visited the cwc website and it says that their ic kit is not available and niether is their intake...WTF. Anyways, what did you do for your intake? It looks like two k&n airfilters. Did you just buy the filters, remove the box and put them at the end of the intake pipes? Where did you find those filters and how much? Sorry to be asking so many questions but I am looking into some serious upgrades and I have to start of small first. Thanks for your help.
