what is your intake?
to me it just looks like the stock intake without the box is that right?

other than that... nice ride =)
its just a basic intake tube with a K&N filter on it... but soon it WILL be the stock airbox.. im tired of the filter on a stick...

it being painted black throws of a lot of people.. i cant wait to get the new intake.. im going stock airbow, drop in k&n and spoon intake elbow.. same or better than short ram, and the intake filter stays cleaner..

I always wondered. If your into autocross, why do you have nitrous? Just for fun on the highway or what?

i found that under WOT on juice i was actualy sucking a little oil back into the intake..NOT GOOD.. that is why the filter is there... one day ill put a catch can in there, but again.. haven't gotten around to it..

hmm i think that we miscomunicated at some point.. i like autocross, but really out of all the racing around.. i prefer street racing the most, and before ANYONE says anything about it being gay, and watching too many movies.. you have to understand.. where ive raced on the street its NOTHING Like that.. long straight roads that run through the middle of no where.. and its one of the best things ever..

thank you.. the outside was actualy not as clean as i like it to be.. but i was pretty happy with the START of my engine cleaing.. im determined to get the WHOLE car MUCH cleaner... i think right now the level is "clean" im shooting more for "spotless".. lol

thanks for all the great comments..... i went with nitrous on my single cam over two years ago and dollar for dollar there was no better choice... i think i want more now.. and im reallly not sure what to do.. im thinking about a swap and nitrous... or maybe turbo D and nitrous on the intercooler.. i wont be making the choice any time soon.. i still have to give it a lot more thought..

i moved the stereo to the bottom DIN the one by the cup holder.. if you have an aftermarket stereo it will fit perfectly.. if you have the stock headunit you have to modify the s**t out of it.. it needs to be shaved with a dremel and it really sucked getting it in there.. but its in good now... as far as the top piece.. i bought a stereo instalation kit and took the trim from that and popped it in.. that left me with a hole exactly one DIN large... i then cut some plexi that size.. and that is the plate.. i cut it the TINYIEST bit too big.. like JUST a hair.. this allowed me to "snap" it in without needing any adhesive... the plate was then measured drilled sanded and prepped to be painted.. then painted and mounted the gauges.. thats it really.. took a while of off and on working on it.. i have a nice piece of plate carbon fiber that i think im going to remake a plate out of...
