dezod turbo installed (new pics of the engien bay as requested)
Just finished with the install of the dezod turbo kit i bought...pretty easy to install...minimal fabrication in my opinion...but i haven't seen what's needed for other kits...i turned every wrench, soldered every wire and went through every headache and mistake myself and finished it in a weekend


i uploaded the e-manage basemap from the e-manage faq thread and kinda gave it a rough tune myself just to go for a test drive...i LOVE boost

set up as is... (this is on the 5spd)

dezod turbo kit with t3/t04e
blitz FATTx
GReddy Profec B Spec II
TiAL wastegate and BOV
RSX type S injectors
dezod downpipe to Megan high flow cat
RS*R ExMag exhaust
Dropzone springs
LM1 wideband A/F meter
E-manage with ignition harness and support tool
Ridin on steelies for now but Buddyclub P1's soon

tried to keep my car a pretty clean sleeper...i painted the intercooler black and did minimal cutting to the bumper...the RS*R exhaust is supposed to be really quiet...haven't heard it yet cuz i have only driven around my neighborhood with an open downpipe....i have a minor oil leak that i need to fix...after that though i will begin the process of tuning...i plan on street tuning myself and datalogging with the wideband and e-manage software...couldn't afford a dyno tune since i'm near broke and got fired from my job a couple days after i ordered everything...so once i get more money i will go for a dyno session just to get some kinks out...anyone wanna show me their e-manage maps?

i'll get some pics of the car fully buttoned up soon...the tial blow off valve sounds really good in my opinion....it doesn't need adjusting so that's a plus...it sounds pretty mellow

Is that the Maxrev intercooler? It looks just like it.

Corky even says it....if it is a good design, feel free to copy to it to make less headaches for yourself. SF proved it would work....I just made some slight changes to the I/C set up. Mani is the most simplistic form..........no coping needed.

BTW, our EL mani will be the hotness!

the intercooler is off-center a little cuz i lined it up with the little tubes on the endtanks...instead of just the endtanks..but i'm over it cuz it's functional...it looks worse cuz of the angle...it's pretty close though
