Nice! Gonna be at the meet this week?

I have to stop looking at build threads, because I get ideas for my car and never stop working on it LOL. But at least you have a different car so it limits the ideas I can steal lol.

[Mortose]

we will see, but not going to make any promises. Still recovering from surgery.

[tsx_guy]

looks good, that's some nice work.

[hcbr929rr2]

how long have you been running that set up with out the FP internals? just curious time and mileage wise...

[Mortose]

I bought the car with 18k on it, and 2 weeks after I got it I had the AP and intake. About 2 months later I got the BPV. I got the TIP and RMM on about 2 weeks ago. I'm waiting to get the exhaust and DP on to do the internals at the same time. I'm sitting just over 34k at the moment.

Very nice mods!

Did you do the fog lights yourself? Can you point me to a good DIY if you used one? I'm going to be doing this, this summer and would love some pointers.

[Mortose]

best pointer i have, take off the bumper. lol. I tried to do it all by reaching through the wheel well plastic. PITA!! i just pulled the bumper, which isn't to hard, and it also gives you a little more freedom for where you put your ballast.

[Shadowden]

Nice work. looks great!

[Regulator]

Looks like you are keeping the horsepower to safety ratio at a pretty even distribution. Quality parts too! You and I are on the same path right now with our Downpipe and fuel pump internals, we might need to combine efforts or something since they are so similar.

Oh BTW I just purchased a front mount intercooler and I will be selling my ETS 3.25" polished intercooler on the cheap if I don't have to ship. I think they fit both the MS3 & 6??

[Mortose]

I don't know about fitment, should be the same. And how cheap is cheap? lolz. I'm trying to save for a FMIC. hahaha

[Regulator]

The picture is the exact same on the ETS website for both the 3 and the 6 so I'm not sure, but it would only take 5 minutes to check if it fit or not. I'll PM you the price I am looking for.

Nice!

[hcbr929rr2]

thats great, I want to start with the same mods on my 3, was just curious about CDFP problems with the intake/tip/bpv combo here at altittude...

[Mortose]

If you have an accessport, then you should be absolutely fine.

BUT, i have heard alot of genpu's having fueling issues from the get-go. so i would, IMHO, look at getting some internals as one of the first things you do.
