Default FMIC meets STS Camaro SS

FMIC completed. Will have more pics up soon, lots more! Unless you guys don't want em?






Note: Extremely strong aluminum bends. IC is solid!


OBX

Piping should go in tomorrow or some time this week. Worked out a plan for easy routing of the pipes which will tie in to the existing STS pipes with very little extra piping needed and no removal of the battery! Will post pics once it is completed.

This should be a good test for the OBX considering the plan is to run anywhere from 10-20psi. Will probably end up somewhere around 10-12 without methanol, and 15 or so with?

We will see...

Will make a full report of pressure drop and IAT vs boost once the system is functioning.

Looks pretty good so far.

Curious to see how you do your piping. I have a good idea of what your going to do. Anxious to see if I am right.

I went for maximum ground clearance with my setup. I've gotta get it on the road and hit some big speed bumps and steep driveways to verify but I am pretty sure I have achieved my goal of a scrape free STS kit on a lowered car.

No pics until I am 100% done though I wanna be unique for a little while at least.
