Its nice to be different, but when its something as important as a cars lighting, and a drivers sight it becomes very important. Thats why theres laws and such and because people have been abusing them (bad retrofits 8K-12K bulbs) this is what happens.

So question, what's the point of putting carbon fiber on your intercooler pipes? It's pretty obvious it's not made out of carbon fiber. I would of done something more worth while...like chromex the piping that adds some fucntionality.

The chances of a pipe bursting at 12 psi is no where near making an alumimum pipe burst. At 12 psi, the only thing that will come loose are the couplers. Carbon fiber is a good weight reducer...but putting it over pipe, or on top of something that already exist does not reduce weight. Functionality over looks.

now that would apply to me ig the turbo kit was a fake, but i like the look of carbon fiber, didnt want to put that vinyl crap on it, hell itl peel off on tho the manifold, some ppl paint their pipes i carbon fiber mine.

Yeah, but it really doesn't do anything for you. I'm telling you, your money is better spent doing something like chromex or some sort of ceramic coating to keep engine heat out. But hey, to everyone thier own I guess...

Wow, it's lookin nice now! The IC pipes are a cool idea, I wish they made completely CF IC piping, but that would probably cost alot. Your CF work is lookin really good!
I really like your new IC setup, front mount seems difficult on the 2nd gens, i still have to get my AC condenser out so I have room for my IC, but a few bolts are stripped out on it, I need to remove all the AC lines too.

well if you do that and want to remove the incar part of the ac, eveporator i think, dont remove all of those sensors, there is one that looks like a group of coils it maty even have a beehive like cage around it that is fan control
bought the mirrors on ebat for like 30 buxsand had the tips, but making the sheet has gotten terrible easy with wax and 2 sheets of glass
