Update: Work completed on day 2...





j/k, pipes are finished from powder coating, here's a pic of comparison between before/after (not on the same pipe, but you'll get the idea of the finish).





Tomorrows work:

Install new pipes, bracket them to frame/block, install new injectors, install S-pipe, custom mid-pipe will be fabricated, install Emanage, install gauges, tune car.

Fridays work:

Finish custom tune, dyno pulls, final assembly, race someone!!!!!

I'm sure there will be a video or two tomorrow.

Keith, from the pics that he posted. it looks like his intercooler piping is hidden from view. the normal kits come with the intercooler exposed on the fake side vents which requires some cutting of the stock bumber. since some people do not want the intercooler exposed like it normally comes, custom piping is required.

can't wait for your vid's Dyltone.

Actually, my FMIC piping will be exposed just like all the others, but the rest of the piping will have a minimum number of connectors and is all custom bent to look a certain way.

Didn't get everything done on the list but here are some pics

Update: Work completed on day 3...

Pipes and Turbo housing came back from powder coater... :D

Here they are:









Worlds only two tone powder coat FMIC :D





Wiring Emange in to ZPI Jumper Harness



Black Turbo and Manifold... SEXY!!!!!!!!!



Test fitting right side piping...





That's it for now, more tomorrow, hopefully some vids too!

Tomorrows work:

Install rest of the pipes, bracket them to frame/block, install new injectors, install S-pipe, custom mid-pipe will be fabricated, install Emanage, install gauges, cut bumper, mount fog lights, install crank pully, tune car.

This shop is so amazing, they come in early, leave late, get parts overnighted, all in the name of customer service. Many other shops could learn a lesson or ten from these guys. ZPI has my business for life and I mean that!!!
