It looks pretty decent. What's your setup, and what's that aluminum glasspack-looking thing in your charge piping?

List of parts is in the link and the canister thing as a pwr air/water intercooler.

In short: Mani/exhaust/intake is custom and everything else is non appliclation specefic parts.

good job, but you should get a bigger intake on the turbo. you are really chocking it down alot, if you are still running that reducer on it.

That air/water IC has to be crap on a daily/street driven car. But otherwise the setup looks to be well done. I like the gt30r

Definetly toss the reducer to her inlet like the other guys have said

nice setup, however I think your upper IC pipe should be routed differently, ---- not only does it cover the radiator cap it looks like the hood wont even shut?

Cool stuff though =) welcome to HMT

It is a air-water intercooler, which plays the part of entire IC piping setup.
