:werd:I'll never do it in the car again, it's too easy to drop it out of the bottom.
When i built it i pulled it out of the top..still should have dropped it.

The godspeed intercooler has been great. The intercooler and piping cost me under $300.. Didn't quite have the funds for the $1500 Greddy intercooler kit. What kind of intake temperatures do you guys see under boost?

I recently built a dual 3 inch exhaust, that i modeled mostly from AAM's 3" competition exhaust. I used megan racing mufflers, but i'm about to add some resonators because the drone is crazy without the silencers in, and i hate the look of silencers. I'm not sure of the brand on the test pipes, i got them from mark at SGP a long time ago, but they bolt directly to the back of the turbo. They are 2.5" diameter.

I thought Haltech didn't work with the Revup? Does the proEFI work with a Revup?
