Getting it up on the lift to remove custom exhaust to remove the twins

Getting closer

Getting frustrated

Removing the twins was GAY. such a PITA

Twins removed BYE BYE!

Just for fun got a shot of my new twin Photon Blaster :biglaugh:

Looks great! Kudos for running the BOV where you ran it, nothing like SSQV on FMIC.

What's in store for tuning the single setup? SAFC? or you're going with a piggyback or standalone? Happy boosting, none the less.

The Reaper · 08-28-2007, 09:41 AM

yea i'll be wiring in a spare SAFC which is a piggyback for now but will prolly go back to the emanage. the EMB was an awesome tool

SupraFan55 · 08-28-2007, 05:11 PM

Lets us know how it goes! Don't forget to get videos of the car in action.

The Reaper · 08-28-2007, 07:51 PM

thats in the works right now. my buddy with a nice camera just moved so its packed away somewhere haha.

coming soon tho i promise.

SupraFan55 · 08-28-2007, 09:11 PM

BTW, how was the fitment of Drewgo's manifold? No modding needed to fit it right? I'm also assuming you went the Open WG route.

The Reaper · 08-29-2007, 08:32 AM

yea open dump. Drewgo's mani fit good but i had to grind down part of the Water Neck housing where the tstat sits to get the manifold to slide on with all of the Manifold studs in the head

drew's mani is the SHIT

sounds amazing, theres 3 singled 1J cars in my area including mine and mine sounds way differen and more race carish than any of the others
