i like yours because it goes with the look of your car. your car is dark, so your turbo manifold fits right in.
mine on the other hand stands out and makes the engine bay look cleaner.
if it wasnt for my horrible heat foil stuff, id say it looks pretty good under there

x2 on the funding of tune, clutch, and tires. i cant afford any of them really

i have to agree with matt honestly, as much as i love the black theme

his shiny manifold had me OOOOOOOOOOO'ing.

and clocking the turbo just means loosening the bolts and turning the inlet to the direction you want it facing, or the turbo oil and feed inlets tot he direction you want thhhhhhhhat to face.

matt, didn't you post you bling in this thread somewhere?
hold on, I think I got one.


yeah, that ish looks TIGHT! It really stands out in your bay.
I think I like mine cause mines ALL black, and I think if you had gotten polished pipes it would look better together as a whole.

He didn't get anything polished or coated...it was a "gift"
He shoulda got all the charge pipes polished, then everything on top would be polished, and everything on bottom would be black.

I got all my ____ coated black. I put it togather real quick and it looked sweet. Polished would look better but the whole heat thing was a big worry of mine. hopefully the ceramic hold the heat in and does not affect anything

You will still need to remove the padding under the hood and put that gold heat foil tape on the underside of your hood right above where the manifold sits.

Nah, I like the first pic better. You can see more of the mani and you can see the polished turbo too.
I supposed your not going to take full engine pics till you get your maf fixed, right? oh, I asked Todd about that for you when he called me the other day...he wasn't sure if you needed one or if you had fixed it already

Yeah, I'd call him, but I already told him you did.

Matt got the bonuses cause he was one of the first to order the kit, and Todd was supposed to install and tune the kit for him...but they could not get the tuner and installed dates lines up for the same weekend, and I guess he felt bad about it cause Matt was like "F$uck this $hit! Your taking to GODAMN long! Just send me my mutherF#ucking kit already BIATCH!" And then matt got polished stuff.
