that sound is so weird - must be the camera failing to record some of the sound.
what did you use for the recoding?
I am sure it sound great in real life :D

Yeah somethings definitely not right. I listened with head phones on and it fades back forth between ears.

maybe it would work if you took the video farther back. could just be audio overload on the recording device if it's a phone for example. just a guess.

gosh i really suck at updating. anyways... that last video was taken with a phone. i have a new video that i made with a gopro. just gotta upload it.

had some personal issues so had to take a break with modding the TC for a quick second... but now im working on a new project... Front Mount Intercooler. Ordered a 29x8x3.5 one sided 2.5in inlet/outlet Intercooler from cx racing.... hopefully everything should work out like it does my head. Going to reuse the descendant piping and add some new piping to fit in the intercooler. Pics to come...once it coms in the mail!

Here are some new improvements to the TC ive done in the mean time:
Finally wired up the AEM AFR Gauge
Racing Solution 2.5" S-Pipe
15mm Ichiba Hub-centric Wheel Spacers

So I like the idea of the side mount intercooler, but i wanted the cool look of a front mount. but since Descendant (aka World-Racing) is no longer supplying anything for their turbo kit, it was time for Ebay!

Purchased a 31x8x3 2.5in inlet/outlet single side intercooler and some random pipe kit that i thought would kinda work with some of the piping i already had installed on the car... (appologies for ____ty cell phone pics camera was dead when i was doing this)




After a little bit of cutting, drilling, and yelling, i had a finished product.



everything holds boost and it looks fine. Just need to find me a new grill now. and a retune.
