yes the pipe on the driver side goes where a cai would go, and side grills dont fit but front lower does.. i had to cut the bumper a bit on both sides, not noticable, but i will try to see if the ebay or vrd fogs fit in it and i will slap my front lower front grill on and itll be stealth status

The R&D is already done, and it's just plug and play. How dare they charge for that!?

do you think your kit would run better with the TRD reflash?

hey um interesting kit. As long as it works i guess ur good. But hey when you shorten up that oil line some take another pic and tell me how long you made it. I will need lines for my kit and i have the treadstone manifold. Someone said they used the 12" dezod line but it just looks like 12" would be to shirt for how much lower the turbo sits than on a dezod manifold. Or do you think 12" would work?

you could order just the line and an fittings....cut to size...its just a pita to get the hose mated to the fittings...uggg...but its doable.

um as of right now yes, but once i get bigger injectors and my safc...no the trd reflash takes away alot of timing too much for my liking and is a pita to tune

i actually used the 12" dezod line a while back with another setup i had,


right now i actually just re-routed the oil line i ran it under the turbo and it comes up between the radiator and turbo then it meets the top of turbo its a clean/easy fix look

Are u running colder plugs? Also, is this coupled to the stock exhaust?? What do you think a 3" turbo back exhaust would do for your setup?

i dont have splash guards either and didnt have a problem. as long as you dont go in a puddle and dump your filter in it. lol being directly next to the block you are sucking up alot of the heat coming from the block. atleast pointed down you getting all the air from under the car which is few degrees lower temp.

what do you think a 3" turbo back exhaust will do for the car in its current state?? do you think that will make it run too lean?
