Re: Fresh powder Coat

Hey man, I see you are planning on running a SRI on your set-up. I would STRONGLY advise against it. I had an AEM v2 SRI on my k20a2, and it heat soaked like a biatch, especially in the summers. I chopped my SRI and located my filter down inside the front drivers side bumper and it is much better now. Seeing as you are in AZ, I believe, you will have more heatsoak than I did, and I couldn't stand it. If I sat in stop and go traffic, I just felt bogged down, because it was taking in air that was being heated up by the header. My 2 cents...hope it helps. Other than that, it looks good man.

Re: Fresh powder Coat

I believe that almost all RSX-S and EP3 CAI fit the EM2 chasis. But, like I said, I just made a couple of strategic cuts in my SRI and piped it down into my front bumper, cause I didn't feel like spending 200 bucks on one when I had one that would work, lol.

Re: Fresh powder Coat

Might as well grab an ITR black dipstick, pretty cheap, as the orange one would stick out like a sore thumb.

Re: Fresh powder Coat

no only metal can be powder coated. powder coating uses an electrical charge to make the powder stick...plastic doesn't conduct electricity
