A few underhood pics after the turbo install... Still have some loose ends... these shots were taken about 20 minutes ago. The polish work is 1.5 years old now, but it still shows well. The air horn (where the airlid used to be) and the part behind the maf are ceramic coated. I want to strip them soon and polish 'em like the rest. ~Joshua
Excuse the dark shadows..

On a sunny weekend I enjoy every bit of what I'm paying for.

Kinda blurry... the 60lb. fuel injectors are painted regular silver to blend in.

Hey Joshua, I dont think I've told you lately but I'd just like you to know that I officially hate you and this just reinforces that. 
Ridiculous man, just ridiculous.
Side note, how much did the Incon kit run you (assuming you picked it up used)?

Cost? I bought it new (minus fuel injectors, gauges, and tune) for $7500. By the time I got it home to Atlanta from Chicago (road trip) I had $8100. Then it nickel and dimed me to death over a 4 months period. One turbo starved for oil.. another $980 for the repair (new turbo) and.... I've got just over $12,000 in it as it sits....
I still need to buy my own laptop and hptuners (instead of borrowing) and tons of other details. I'm both poorer, and wealthier because of this hobby/project/obsession. I've learned alot.
