A GReddy turbo timer was installed to ensure that the engine is properly cooled down after those driving sessions.

If the work looks as good close up as it does in these pics, then I'd have to applaud the guy's shop for such crazy work and creativity. However, I still stand by my stance of "keeping it in the family" and since the conversion isn't to a Honda or Acura, then I cannot find it attractive. I have complexes, I know, and I should be more open-minded about it, but I really cannot like a car that's taken pieces out of cars by another maker.

HA ! I didnt feel like reading the whole thing
but ya !!
What idiots.. You can't have an intake looking like that with a custom turbo setup, even more an Injen ! HAHA
Where is the turbo going to fit with that huge battery + header heat shield still on.
As for the cams, I bet they arn't there either.
Look closer in on interior mods. He states that they redid the e-brake boot. FYI: We dont have one ! but then again, you can chop it, throw in a reactive e-brake bar and refab that, but i doubt it, since his super stealth turbo is working magic.
