Default Nismo Install

Anybody up for helping me throw on my Nismo CIA this evening after work? Got a new place over in Falls Church near Bailey's Crossroads and new to the area so if anyone was interested just let me know. Huge 2 car garage to do stuff in and a pretty big driveway so you dont have to park out in the street.
Just lemme know. Thinking about 5ish.
Yeah I could do it myself but I figure what the hell. Might as well see who else whats to just meet up and hang out for few. Not gonna be an all night thing. As *** cable hasn't freaking got me hooked up yet I would say lets turn it into a xbox evening but that aint happening tonight.

Default Wow...

41 folks looked at my thread and not a one responded. It was a late post....I know.

So whatever, here are a few pics I took through the evening took me about two hours to do cause I took my time.

Install looks good. However if you want the most bang for your buck, most have suggested a JWT Popcharger intake.

You are correct but didn't feel like going underneath it and maybe stratching the tubing up. I dropped my flat head screw driver and got my big *** arm stuck in between the block and fan. That was fun.

Instruction manual said the same thing but I just figured why not?
