Damn that looks nice... If I had the cash saved up I would buy that right now. Looks like I'll have to wait until the winter...

Are the pipes available just polished?

If you put a silver grill over the intercooler will it be somewhat hidden or is there not enuff room to put it since you have to cut some parts to fit it. I want the sleeper look but still want the bov sounds .

Hey how much will shipping be for the kit to be sent to Toronto? Also, I am curious about the installation, somewhere I read Mike will do installation at Lancaster for 100, is that true? Is this kit simple enough for me to just bring it to a autoshop and get it installed? I am kinda curious, thanx.

You can install it yourself if you know how to use tools well. It takes around 4-6 hours, and it is really easy. I dont know how much shipping is, but it usually runs around $70-$80 in the US.

one thing we need to add in here is the break-in requirements. I need to know as well.

i know ive said this before, but is it possible to get a traditional looking intercooler, something in my mind just likes that syle 100x better, nothing against SF, but can you make that style or switch over, it just loooks bad ***

I told him that, but it might look a little funky having the trad. one with the pipes going in on the same side.

To break in my car, i drove it about 300-400 miles without romping on it at every light. the car will start feeling better and better for those first couple hundred miles.
