looks great , but i would put a blanket or wrap that coupler that comes right off the tB to intercooler piping because you will burn a hole in it .

oil feed line looks too big!! unless you have an oil restrictor on the line i would change it to -3 or -4 line.

Nice I just hate the part when turbo car burns plugs on that car. Man that intake mani sucks. I say get a 250$ freddy manifold and be good to go.

Stock trans is fine for now. Only aiming for 300 ish til i get a manual.

Turbo blanket is coming, just doing the mockup still

Oil line is the line that comes with the kit, but yes it has a restrictor.

I have never seen a $250 IM for this car...

Drilled the oil pan last night and got the last of my silicone couplers in.

Working on wiring in wideband and truboost. both AEM.

Not much left to do. Itll run today hopefully. Have to fine tune a few things and what not.

looks great, the safc sooner or later will disappoint you on the GE ecu as its not consistent.
I would recommend using the JDM TT ecu or standalone. my car felt twice as powerful after i got it off the safc and dialed in some stable timing.

It runs, but still has a few issues here and there. needs lots of little tweaks here and there. Ive basically had to change alot of the parts from the XS kit. hard parts were good to go, but the rest suck.

I no longer get response to emails from Mark either...
