Talking Some uninstalled pics of my 500r and other mods being bolted on

First, a Groundzero LIM that has been cerama-chromed. It looks sooo much better than the stocker, and my rotors are pretty excited about the equal length runners (esp my rear rotor, lol).

Next, my KG fuel system. I also have a pair of 870 primaries being installed that aren't pictured.

Next is my custom 4 inch exhaust that I had fabbed up. I'm really happy with the craftsmanship, I am a bit apprehensive that you'll be able to hear it in the next county. I can shove my arm all the way in the muffler section up to my shoulder

The 500r turbo and downpipe. I had the dp, mani and turbine housing ceramic coated. It's a 1.0 hotside, wg plumbed back into the 4 inch dp. You can also see the egt bung and pair of o2 bungs welded on the dp.

The long runner manifold. I went with this over the short runner to maximize performance, but it also forced me to deep six my m2 large smic. V mounts aren't available at a decent price anymore, so it looks like a fmic may be in my future.

Ha, maybe. He's actually the one doing the install, I have neither the time nor patience to screw with the car right now.

Until I get an intercooler and a nice tune, I'm not going to be racing anyone unfortunately

Rich,
On the IC situation, you might contact Atihun. He makes replicas of the CWR intercooler duct. That IC lays forward quite a bit more than the M2, and should make piping it easier.

You'd have to source your own IC core/tanks, but that would be easy. Sean could get one for you... it's basically the same size as the M2 large, only with the inlets centered on the endtanks.

Check out Crispy's site for a good look:

w that exhaust you are going to get to know lots of guys in blue uniforms on a very personal basis. be sure and escrow some cash as they charge for the visit.

that's going to be reeeeellly loud. your exhaust reminds me of something a nameless enginebuilder once told me about bridgeports.... by the time you put enough exhaust on them to stay out of the pokey you have lost their advantage.

where's the methanol?

I was asked not to quote a price b/c it's a custom design. Assuming Sean will make another one, PM him (zero r) for a quote. If I had to do it all over again, I'd opt for a larger oval rear muffler.
