Not from what I understood from Bill, now Moto-Mike told me his would be a Hybrid.

Never had a single issue with my similarly transitioned VMS CAI while n/a with the stock and Moto-East tunes.



For some odd reason I find the STS turbo kit really intriguing. There are some quirks, but I think with a solid tune, a well-resonated midpipe, plus any other kinks ironed out it will be a lot of fun. It HAS to be priced competitively, though. If it's more than $5k with a CARB tune then it just won't make sense.

I know @jamesm and @King Tut dislike the less-than-ideal rear mount but assuming the final kit doesn't lag too bad it should be enticing to many non-Floridians who have to worry about staying emissions legal, or want to turn laps at a road course with stock cooling gear. It sounds badass, would be stealthy with a DWL diffuser covering it all up...

Nailed it. With that being said, I await @Cross 's results, and I can't wait to see some boost plots.

So will the intercooler be a front mount? That's gonna be a lot of extra piping...

[Cross]

I agree it is but its still the best place to put it.

Yes it is if that was not clear sorry.

Just delete the washer tank because race car!

I need to delete mine since I always keep it empty for dem weight savings...

Just keep a small bottle of windex and a microfiber cloth in the glove box.

I have a car that can be considered the race car this is the daily so I want everything to work lol

Just got the Base File from Mike, we have been exchanging emails I am going to jump right in on getting started! Ahead of schedule definately like that he told me originally Friday. Thanks @moto-mike!

[Cross]

Alright Mike has already gotten me a revision, I again want to thank him this was a late night thing and he took the time to jump on it. I am really looking forward to tomorrow and seeing how much further we get. He has a few more logs to review and I am sure he will continue to take care of me.

Exciting to be making changes, I'm really look forward to where we end up!

Alright after a strange FedEx... I don't even know what to call it I will have my new Windshield Bottle tonight. ( @KraftWerks was able to set me up with one, thanks again!)

So this weekend if not sooner I will be doing the intercooler install finally.

However @moto-mike has been making great progress with the tune. So far we are really close in his opinion time for some dyno time after we work out the last little thing I found today.
He got my Valet tune ready for tomorrow when the car goes into the dealer to have some issues with the passenger door dealt with.

Either way though its been a lot of fun to drive in the mean time. I got a few pictures at the Local Motors Open House, ton of fun with some of the locals.

Also I took the Vette out with the new Tiger Shark Bumper. I like it so far.

Intercooler is in even though a coupler didn't show up so I had to go to Motorsport Warehouse to get a red one because that's all he had that would fit. But Jack and I got it on. Now to bake the headlights and paint the housings black. Then to finish the birthday present Jack and Kristy gave me early, Hella Horns.

Here's a test fit picture had to change it again because when I rotated the MAF there was no where to bolt it down.

Couldn't use the Kraftwerks washer bottle so that sucks now I have to design something else. This means mine is for sale brand new.

Also Jared brought down the new toy it runs and drives.

No the 24th. But since I had the bumper off they gave it to me early.
