some recent pics and info on my little snowflake.. function > form.. my philosophy and I'm basing this car for performance rather then looks,ice,rice w/e u wana call it..
















thats how snowflake lies now.. built head w/ 11.1 semi built bottom.. i like to keep things simple in the bay and internally the motor can speak for itself.. some ppl have already taken a ride or seen my car in action locally..so im sure they'll chime in on this build...im still missing a few things left to complete the car...but they are minor and ill be wrapping it up soon hopefully.. tuning and midpipe upgrades are all thats left for performance.. suspension im missing a nice little x-brace.. and they'll be some interior upgrades aswell (seats, door insert re-wrap, gutting of the rear..

still have some ways to go but since im getting married and paying for a wedding and bought a house my money focuses have shifted a tad..

heres the dyno..


still need to get tuned(not happy with my fuel curve yet in some rpms i think the snifffer is off a little on the dyno),upgrade the exhuast, upgrade the grounding wires and maybe some other little things here and their.. ill be going back in a few weeks to get tuned (hopefully)..

did you raise the car after the kit was put on?

tC9o9

car looks great.

how do you like the header? is it holdin up pretty good?

racerxj17

all about the looks, but you have a body kit

none the less, good looking car.

tC9o9

he never said he wouldnt put a little bit of style on it. its only a lip kit, nothing crazy.

TCpete

no its the same height as its been since the last time i posted pics about 2 months ago.. i have about 1 finger gap all the way around thanks to the teins basics..im about the same height as lets say stechs but a little higher. close to htech height on 17's... the gaps look large sometimes because of lighting and angle of pic.. also the 215 tires arent helping.. ill be going with a 225 or 235 as soon as the stock potenzas wear out.. most likely 225. i just re-used my stock tires when i got the weds and slapped them on to save money.. they fit so why not.

but thanks for noticing the new lip kit lol.. i just put it on about 2/3weeks ago.. and my clearences are fine.. havent scrapped yet lol.

the mmw header is treating me great.. i cant complain.. i have no rasp at all and the gains were noticable after about 1 week of driving after the car got use to it.. i never reset the ecu when i put it on even though i should have but ecu eventually learned and its great now (2 months later) no rasp even when i put on the greddy evo2 exhuast.. no rasp.. so im lucky and very happy..

when i upgrade the midpipe lets see what happens ... i will probably need a resonator of some sort when i upgrde that..

oh and the PS pump is not leaking lol but when i tossed on the strut bar it covered up the original location of were i had my 1up band.. so i moved it to the PS so its more visible.

dude lol.. thats the OEM lip kit lol.. not a body kit lol.. noobies lol.. thats as simple as u can get on a tc as far as styling.. other then being stock as ***** on the body. which IMO everyone should have a lip kit.. it makes the car look alot nicer and sportier..
