They are testing the tuning software today, doing some initial runs. If that all checks out ok, then fitting the turbo kit.

Well, we tested the tuning software yesterday for a reason - to make sure it worked with our RA model. Turns out we are having some minor issues, and it will take about 3-5 days to get that worked out.

So, we are installing the turbokit anyways.

It is mainly to check fitment of the production pieces and to make sure no issues crop up. This is literally happening right now, so it probably won't be till early A.M. before they finish.

bumper off and car prepped for install

FMIC core fitted

Love the blacked out intercooler core. So stealthy!

Love the black intercooler!

Ravenlokk · 09-20-2012, 03:11 AM

I hope i'll be able to make this work with the AIRAID airbox and filter lol. Well, either that or i'll just rip the box open and attach the filter to the intake pipe :P

Lookin good!

yomny · 09-20-2012, 07:57 AM

Beautiful! Keep uo the great work! Like the way the silicone couplers allow the use for what seems to be a 2.5" diameter pipe instead of the much smaller ones on the hot side of most other kits.

Apex Chase · 09-20-2012, 08:03 AM

Now we are talkin'! Love the black intercooler.
