Default Finally done!!!! New pics!!
I'm completely done with under the hood except for maybe some polished caps from specialized staineless. Also my stb is being repolished. These pics blow but what do you expect when borrowing your mothers camera...
Sisters camera...

New pics with moms camera...









Also i'll be making another thread when I get my flat black blackbird stripes in! I haven't seen any pics of black ws6s with flat blackbirds. Can't wait for those!

Do the FRCs fit the intake right or did you have to trim them? Also did the plug where the EGR goes come with it or did you have to find one somewhere?

I have the same intake on the way right now...but its satin so I am going to polish it and then have it chromed.

Any tips for putting on that arent obvious?

It's just your basic intake install. I didn't do anything different from when reinstalling my ls6 intake. FRCs fit good. I didn't cut them at all.

Cool...have you test fit your Hotchkiss STB on there yet? Is so where does it fit relative to the logo? It doesnt cover it up does it?

I haven't put it on there yet. Are you referring to the weiand logo on the intake? The front bar(closest to the front of the car) will probably be right over it. You can still see and read the logo I think.

If you count the humps on the intake in the first pic and count the humps in the second pic you can tell you won't have a problem at all seeing the logo.
