headlights are just covered in grease and oil from the install, they will be cleaned.

the piping, its just shavings from the block, they rusted over night. we started to use a wire loom to polish it off and then i was like..."nahhhh lets just put it on, f**k it i like the looks lol"

ok here is it all in a nutshell. it's not tuned, except a base map, so i cant rev past 5K which is when my turbo his boost, so basically i have no boost until i tune it (hopefully tomorrow Nate is free).

for the kit...from experience of others, go with ebay for most s**t to keep it cheap.
ebay turbo
johnnyracecar.com intercooler
i got tunertoys injectors, but i'd go rc 450-550's low impedence
tunertoys.com IC piping $100 for ALL you need if you do it right
reliable wastegate
turbo xs rfl blow off valve (ebay special)

i spent $1600 in parts and about $700 in labor, which includes the BEST tune you can get around here. My boy Nate tunes everybody s**t to the best, better than any performance shop. f**k hondata, uberdata, aem..ECU baby! total came to $2300 installe and tuned

ok i had like an 8 inch greddy in height, and it took up my WHOLE grill, you couldnt even see the inlet/outlet in the grille, but then there was NO room for fogs at ALL. which is why i traded for a 6 inch height, smaller length FMIC and it was still a b***h to bend around the fogs and make it work. i had to cut half of my foglight brackets off to make the piping fit by it, on both sides. the bumper barely holds on the car lol. the screws are screaming

I called the exhaust place today to see how much it would be to cut a hole in my downpipe for my o2 bong to be welded on for tuning and they said about $30 if i bring the downpipe in myself. If they have to put it on a lift then it is probably like $50 or something. I can't get it tuned until i get that o2 bong welded on there so.... depends what i buy my dad for his birthday, then we'll see how much i have left over.

Btw...on the blow off valve, does anybody know how many shims to put in?
The BOV comes with 5 but feedback says you use diff. amounts.
