yeah thats clean as hell..
While im not trying to have my interior look like MUzzys... im also never behind the wheel of this thing much even when it is running.. so its kind of a carnival ride.
Its over the top.. parts people usually dont see.. and that keeps it sponsored
Im preparing a proposal package for AEM now tbh.. might ditch all of these gauges and just replace them w digis from them.. afterall, at one point id love to run thier water meth kit too.

I know you like top of the line ish, so devils own would be worth it. Devils own you can setup to run stainless lines. Do a dual pump to feed your lower runners and run a 50/50 mix there, then have a third pump feeding a large nozzle (to keep pressure high and allow full atomization) running pure meth to a nozzel right after the turbo on the charge piping.
Then you have the aem failsafe on the pump(s) feeding the direct port runners, and tune the car with that only (leaving the third turbo pump off). Then you just turn the last meth only pump on, and let it just lower you intake charge. It will richen up your mix by a like .2 or .3 but really no big deal because of the stoich mixes of methanol.
Your ecu will add timing for the secondary kit automatically (lower intake temp), and if that ever stops working will have automatic failsafe built in yo your car (I'm assuming you're tuned on Volumetric Efficiency or speed density). And then the aem failsafe will take control of managing the very important direct port system. You can run the output signal to your ecu or your boost controller so if that ever stops working your car can pull timing or drop to wastegate pressure in a snap. Setting up the data logging on the aem failsafe is so easy and so effective.
Anyway, that's what I'm doing on my car at least. And I won't even start with my nitrous setup I'm brewing. If I'm going vortech I'll still see to it I make panty dropping pump gas numbers lmao
But yeah I get what you're doing with the car now lol. No offense, but it's almost a pity the way you have it because the rest of your interior is so damn minty.
I'd love to see you De clutter the gauges, get an led mod to red for the gauge cluster, swap out the OEM triple, get a gtr steering wheel, and rewire the steering wheel **** to like over boost on a boost controller or something like that.

still waiting to hear backl from precision turbo.. so ive been ironing out details as it just sits here.
wheel fit.. needs to be tackled..
front aired out.. has tons of room.. will likely adjust out a degree of camber and also add a 10mm ichiba spacer i have here.
now the rear is a different story.. this tire sticks way out almost until it hits the flare.. then the shorter RUCA pulls in and slips it right under the flare.. sooo close lol.
as we started adding camber, it really adds toe out, so i ordered some Kinetix adjustable traction arms to help.. this fit is killer, but its also aired out, meaning that at ride height, it has no visible camber.. and actually looks so straight up and down that its funny looking..
i plan to add back in a degree or so .. just a touch more..
should look frikn awesome when were done.
i love this fit!

Not sure if these will work in correlation with your bags.. but these will help you with your toe issue. They'll grab the back side of the hub while the camber arms only grab the front.

next up on the B Money build, self adjusting camber arms that adjust as ride height adjust.
That rear shot - stance looks fire, fam. Makes me wanna camber mine out a bit more

The collpased bag height inst enough with those.. even w that mount dropped, the bag sets too high up .. wont let you air out.
I bought the kinetix arms.. a touch of adjustment there along w a touch more negative camber will be just fine im sure. Plus it only really impacts the fit when its aired out.. when its riding up you wont notice the slight fwd position .

And you have two more gauges on top of the main cluster :O
Overwhelming space ship mode on fleek. Otherwise I dig the rest of it lol. That wrap is on point. I have been thinking about diying some micro suede **** in but I have 100 other projects on this car to finish first.
But I'm horribly picky about gauges... I don't even like A pillar setups. Don't listen to my critique on gauges.
Go pro recording button is a nice touch.
Do you have the apexi ecv? I'm considering getting one....

i do have the ecv ^ I just havent mounted the handle and drilled the hole for the cable yet lol.. i figure ill add it to the planted seat base so that way i just do the ol " cop drives by so i close the muffler up by doing what looks like a "grab the gun under my seat" move"... seems like the smart call lol.
Im really just being lazy becuase pulling my seats out w the car still in the garage is going to be a nightmare... and the door panel already hits the driovers shoulder bolster.. needs to adjust towards the center console..
waiting to do it all at once when Takata finally has my belts in stock in the US lol.
Cant wait to install em tbh. Sht will look clean n scary.
Its funny you mention that ECV .. most other people dont know what it actually is
some troll kid on Chris Alphas page commented " the award for the longest description of an exhaust cut out goes to Brian McCann"...
smmfh.. its a butterfly yes.. but it is NOT a cut out lol.. like at ALL. lol
