I want to see what everybodys mods are looking like and how your engine bays look. Here is mine so far. www.cardomain.com/id/supawhitetc

That header you have looks nice! I like the photos you took
showing the installation and the difference over stock!

:clap: Looks pretty sweet man, good work. Your poll desn't seem to tally votes that well, but I voted for the Weapon-R SW Intake next. BTW, you have 60mm throttle body in your future mod list twice. Where'd ya get the tC oil cap from?

Oil cap....I seen them on Ebay. About $14.00

I like the battery strap done like that. Had a hard time buying a AEM for $50.

Nice engine bay

Thanks. Yeah the oil cap was an ebay special for $13.00.

Did you do the header install yourself? It seems pretty easy...just wondering...

eWww stock headers always look nasty. :( I like your oil cap!

Just to answer your question, because I did the same mod, yes they were very easy!

Looks nice man. Just out of curiosity what kind of air filter is that?

I think it is APC it was what they had at advance auto parts.

engine bay is looking good.

SWEET

ahahhaha i got fooled by one of the pics. when i saw it i thought u cut another whole in ur rear bumper but enlared it was just a shadow of someones head. hahahahhahahahah :rofl: :loser:

Did that header make your check engine light come on like everyone says it does? I don't think it looks like it would - the O2 sensor is pre-cat, and I don't see a post cat bung on there. I know there is one cuz we're higher than OBD-I, but the second one might be far enough down the line that it doesn't throw a code. Even if it does, limp mode doesn't result from a secondary O2 sensor CEL, but it's a _____ to stare at and emissions testing doesn't like that sort of thing.

Car looks sweet though. :) I can't wait for my TRD kit to get here. It was shipped yesterday. ;)

It will make the CEL come on but I did the sensor mod with the spark plug anti-foulers and turned it off. The second O2 sensor is on the S-Pipe between the first and second cat.

Spark plug anti fouler mod? Care to elaborate?

I went to the ADR website.....www.adrwheels.com, and I looked up your wheels

19X8.5 Hyper Black M-sports, and they dont make those wheels in the 5x100 bolt pattern. So are you sure you got those wheels, and if you did I dont understand how you go them to work.

Well if you notice on ADR's site they only have a few types of rims listed as 5X100. They never update their site but if you call them or any place that sell their wheels they will have all of them in 5X100. Plus I got these used off of a guy in Detroit and I think they are kinda old.

Here is the topic about the CEL Mod it is really easy and only costs like $4-5.

oh, ok cool they look good. what offset are they btw, do you think a rim with a lower offset than yours would work?

Looks good. The white bay really makes the cat itself stand out (when the hood is open)

How did you get your filter to work wit the stock tubing? Did you get a piece of platics tubing and cut a hole in it for the sensor?

My wheels are +35mm offset and with that width you are not gonna fit any lower of an offset without major issues. My wheels are as close as you can get without any modifications. As for the intake I took a stock air box cut the MAF inlet tube off and did a little trimming and painted it black and slapped it on.

where did you get that oil cap supawhitetc?

OMG you tC folks' stock exhaust manifold is a monster! Those headers were a big improvement!

The header install is by far the easiest I have ever done on any vehicle I have done to date! I personally like the look of the Megan Racing headers when they have been used.(The burnt up metal look). But yea very nice mods I just got the Injen SES exhaust and the piping is rather low so I can't lower my car more than 2" because anything lower would only give me 2" or so of clearing from the pipe hehe.

That is downright sexy. Good work!

Looks great! How does it sound with the Borla exhaust? Every other post about headers & exhaust system seems to say the combination sounds rice. Any clips?

here are some pics of my engine bay i jus finished workin on nothin much but jus wanted to get some feedback on it http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/336344

nice man. how do you like the megan headers? how is the sound? did they have to break in for a while to get the desired sound everyone is talking about?

well i love the sound of the headers but its not raspy on my car cuz i don't have the trd exhaust which i heard was not meant to handle soo much air flow from the headers dats y it makes the raspy noise it does but u do notice a performance jump..

Who painted your intake white for ya? Did you do that yourself and if so was it hard taking it off and how much was the gasket? Looks real good in my own opinion!!
