boog, the IC is 25 long by 3.5 deep, its tapered so one end is 11 tall and the other is 14 tall. its made by APS. i like it because its painted, it wont fade or discolor like my vortech one did.

Oh thats right , APS uses the up and down flow IC . Just looking for a little bit bigger IC , that flows better than the stock Sperco IC that comes with the Vortech

the turbo is a garrett gt35R. i was just joking about it being small, of course its small compared to my friends gt42 he has on his FD.

ok, after 2 hours, ive gone thru every nut and bolt, hose, washer and plug, and made sure all parts are there, and yes all parts are there. there were a few TINY issues ive reported to peter, but nothing serious, and he responded quickly and is gonna check on it on monday. ive assembled everything possible that i can off of the car, i built the bov/boost controller unit, i put everything where it needed to be, i put everything in place so i wont have to look, or fumble around looking for parts, which is gonna make the install much easier and so much faster. im sure i can knock it out in a day now. so now all i have to do is put it all on the car. here are some more pics.

Really looking foward to a review. Especially about how throttle response is. My biggest concern with going single opposed to twin is how much differnce in lag there is.

I'd be really suprised if you get the install done in a day. I haven an APS Twin Turbo kit and just the fuel pump housing modification, unichip installation, vacuum hose routing and fuel injector swap took me about 6 hours. That stuff is all the same from the TT kit to the single kit.
