I know. I'm pulling my hair out waiting for the bastards. My car is sitting in the garage ready to rip some ---- up, but I have no fuel management/ECU.

lol, you should be thanking me then :P na man seriously, if it doesn't get there within another day or two, i'll send you another one 2 day ups or something it will either show up at your house or back at my house eventually, mail doesn't just 'dissappear' :P
sometimes it does...

ohh yeah, and i didnt put in a O2 sensor, and no down pipe yet.

the WG chatter is insane sounding. it sounds very bad ***. almost to the point where i dont want a BOV, i like hearing that chatter. :P

not exactly chatter. I think the term is compressor surge . ghetto. but thats how we do it around here

you thinking about opening the fog light hole for more air? still have that plastic splash shield so rocks flying off the tire dont start to dent the intercooler from the back?

if you read in my little other write up of the install of the IC, you can see that i did cut away at the fog light hole. the upper charge pipes are cool, so the IC is working properly. if i get chips in it, oh well.

I just noticed you used flex pipe like a true gangsta, good job. on the next manifold I've thought about routing the charge pipes out the front of the bumper and back in for some mad tyte cooling action, what do you think?

Nice setup man. That is just like mine, it isn't even funny. I put the intercooler in the same spot. I am downloading the video now. Great stuff, with the wastegate.

accually, i think you mounted yours where i thought about mounting mine.- and where everyone else ive seen does it. -cut the bumper support and mount it there. mine accually sits behind the support. paint yours back and it would be good to go man!

kyle, that ---- would be mad sik yo jdm hella style cool points. i would try and do like a wavey pattern also with the flex pipe. :P
