Good luck with your kit. I can only imagine the smile on someones face when they hear the pssssssst sound and feel the car pull them harder than they ever thought possible.

Any problems or missing parts when you were installing the kit? They said 3 to 4 weeks on my kit and its been about a week and a half I just want to be prepared.

I see you have the cryospray system installed too. Did SF sell you that or did you get that on ebay?

You know, funny thing is - that shiznet works. I've seen the clips of guys taking a CO2 FIRE EXTINGUSHER to their intercooler before drag racing!!!

I went to school in Milwaukee (MSOE) for about 5 years, I've seen a lot of it. Where were those pictures taken? What fun it must be to have a turbo in WI - just be careful in the winter, otherwise you will might tear some shiz up with the denser air charge....

Ha - hwy 100 - careful of the po po out there, they're not too fond of crusing. I bet its going to be hard keeping the needle down near 45 as well now too! How much are CO2 refills?

Not driving in winter? You have another car or something? Winters are a bitch there. I remember about 2 years ago we had about 3-4 feet dumped on us overnight. They had that crappy snow emergency downtown and there was NO PARKING ANYWHERE! Fu#kers, didn't really leave us folk who parked on the road much place to park our cars.....needless to say it was a beeyatch dealing with the plows and all.....ahh the good 'ole days....

we're seeing more boosted 7thgens left and right now, i remember when everyone used to cry about no kits being out, hehe those where the "good" 'ol days
j/w how come such low boost, have to break in the turbo or something? i would think if you just got it you would have it to about 6psi to really see what it can do.

You are gonna have to change you screen name now huh!?! Congrats on the kit...almost makes me wish that i would have done that over my swap...*goes out side, starts car, races into VTEC down the street, comes back*...no im pretty happy actually. How much HP can you expect with 4.5psi? Sorry if thats a dumb question, im out of the FI loop...im more into NA right now...maybe turbo dreams will come one day for my K20A2. I know someone was boosting like 9psi and got into the 13's or something like that...thta mean you will be like a 15 to high 14?
