Default just a lil about my car... 56k... ::sad face::

I took a few photos on the top of the local parking garage.
I bought a new camera sony cybershot 5.1mp and I wanted to try it out. Sorry for the large pics.. I reduced them by 75% and they were on 3mp...


i have my friend's ls wheels with yokohama avs100 on the front and just some other tires on the rear

Overall setup,

z6 (all stock.. even injectors)
greddy mani
greddy 15g
homemade
-2.5" downpipe (bye bye kitty)
-2.5" ic/charge piping
-oil feed/drain
-intake air box (more like.... a heat shield at the moment - the filter is in the cold air intake location)
spearco intercooler
act xtoo clutch kit
act streetlite flywheel

the overall turbo setup cost about 900 bucks, not too bad for my first turbo setup.. been running for about 2 years..


















don't hate on the ricer ractive yellow. we did an ohm test on the oem honda wires I had on there and a set of msd superconductors and the ractives came out with the lowest score.
the
-oem honda wires were in the neighborhood of 11k (bad..)
-and the msd 70+ (ok. but they claim to be 50 or less.. and they were less than 1 month 80 miles to be exact, old)
-the ractive 40 or lower














this is the next plan for the car... putting the new bumper that I have had laying around along with a cf lip

and by no means am I a 'balla' with that lip and hood.. I bought them off a kid that had 'BIG' plans for his hatch... but that all fell through.. haha =)

so I low balled the ---- out of him.. if you saw my old hood.. you would know why I needed a new one. And the bumper.. that was free when I bought the car =)

dei heat wrap.. i just followed the directions (overlap 1/4") and then at the ends I put zip ties around the end, or hose clamps (for the downpipe)

If you are looking for that stuff, I got it for a really good deal you can talk to 'onesich22' on aim. he sold it to me for a really really good deal.

Thanks, but I have fire blanket my Dad got for free at work. I know that linkmustang might want some so PM him he'd probably take up on that offer. I meant to also say that some pics look like import tuner. LOL.

Nice car, nice setup for your first time. Already on 2 years, thats a nice time. Any mechanical problems at all during your two years boosted?

Also what type of management you running.

Again clean car. Put that front bumper and lip on, it will look sick. GJ!

mechanical problems... well,

the draing tube i jb welded and it cracked..

i changed the oil, and the drain plug wiggled free... that oil change cost me twice as much as a regular one

i have gone through a set of tires.. lol or two..

as for management, i hooked up that blue box and a vafc. the blue box with the ecu doesnt allow the ecu to go limp when in boost.

it will be switched to uberdata when i can get a burner, some chips, and use my friend's wideband. the 440s are sitting on the table ready to go.. =)
