The heat exchanger will sit in the nose of the car where the old IC used to be. The air to water IC will sit on each side of the car, mounted below the headlights in the nose.

everything looks great!!!! keep up the good work...


i just would like to make one simple suggestion..(which i know ya dont like hearing sometimes) i think it would look pimp if u take evertything to get polydyn to get coated and chromed..with all the custom weldin and pipings..things would look so much better..its like putting the finishing touch to all the artworks that going on down there..

here are some examples:

Duy I already planned on getting everything coated, but there is no need to chrome anything. Chrome is very heavy, and silly. Trust me this thing will look very refined when complete.

arent u planning to make like 3k HP anyway...a few more lbs to the back aint going to hurt..


i guess the respectable Supra/lambo guys who chromed and polished everything under the hood/engine bay looked pretty silly and doing 240+++ MPH in the mile..

lol 90% of the tubing will be underneath the car. And you know Duy everybody wants something different. I am sure that Rc will let me know if he wants some chrome. Hey on a side note if those Respectable supra/lambo guys drove there car off a cliff, would you follow them. And no we only plan on making around 2200-2300 hp haha.

If the plumbing was going to be visible I would want to do some bling on it, but as its all under the car I am just going to get the best coating/wrap I can. Its more of a form over fashion deal here.

Is it going to be on "Low Boost"?

I'm sure it will look great with Polydyne coatings.

Mostly for sound. It will give it a higher pitch. It also allowed me to make the down pipes a bit longer which will give more accurate wide band sensor readings.
