Garrent internal T3/T4 hyrbrid turbo
Jdm sport intercooler,
Greddy Type S bov
Flow balanced 577cc injectors

Expecting around 380hp and 300-320whp
I am going to get it dyno'd soon so i;ll have numbers up

very nice, looks like you did it the right way. intercooler is a little too small for my tastes though, lol. i am also running the t3/t4

MySpecVBlows · Aug 19th, 2006, 12:49 AM

Well the small intercooler i figured would be good enough because, i didnt want any psi drop its small and just fits the stock space and gets the job done

i just cracked off the stock fogliht lenses and are going to smoke them and put them back in the spots. so it seems that i have foglamps

the intercooler might be sprayed black, but it could just pass as an ac condesor look

You really gotta pull the MAF away from the throttle body, you're gonna get major interference with it like that.

No, the MAF signal will get interference from the backflow and turbulence caused by the throttle plate, bigtime.

I'm interested to see how you ran your downpipe, too. lol, as it doesn't look like you gave squat for clearance and intend to melt those lines!
