Here is a quick photo update, I'll update later with all of my findings, more pictures/video and dyne results (probably won't be until next week) once I get it working. At the moment I am working on support work for the fuel rail. Everything fit fine, just hit a few road bumps but sorted it out quickly. It also doesn't help not having instructions and that I am running a different setup compared to the SEMA 0-60 Mag ISF (I tried referencing 0-60 Mags ISF).

Hopefully I will have the car done before Blox Evolution this weekend. I plan on making a heat shield for the intake and a plate/shield under the nose of the s/c to cover up some of the wiring (that's if I get ambitious). I was scared out of my wits to take my car apart and tackle this myself, luckily I had a few friends help out along the way.

One concern I had was potentially having a tough time sourcing parts. Luckily it wasn't too bad.





No lie, the wiring harness for the injectors and coil packs were annoying to clean up, but I was able to do so quite easily with a lot of conduit tubing and electrical tape.

Thanks, I just cut the tabs off. In December I am going to get the wald lip molded, shaved and have the badge holder filled in flush. Much like Devin and Cary's ISF

What spoiler is that on the M3 my brother has an M3 and wants one just like that.

thanks

Kyle, I can't wait for the outcome of how you are going to tune the SC. I want 550whp+ without nitrous so bad. Can't wait to see the car again in person

It's an MP90, so 90 cubic inches per rev

I don't know to be honest, it was a picture I took from Cary's build (HYPRISF). Sorry

Thanks! Yeah I am getting suckered (by myself) into buying all this extra Greddy stuff I probably don't need lol.

Yeah I will when I get the new fuel rail in. I still can't believe I sheared the fuel rail bolt/nub lol.

Yeah we will see how well it'll do! You and I both, I am not a fan of using nitrous. I am going to let the stock ECU self tune itself. Most of the 2IS s/c'd cars are on the stock ECU and are nearing 400whp.
