Nope, no ffim.

If I go ffim, i'll need new ic, piping etc etc etc, (and I will just HAVE to get all the shiney ARZ stuff!)

Pretty sure it's going to be do-able with a bit of planning :)

I will wait and watch. Mine is all done but its routed over the top of my t04z... not great for the heat I am sure!

I do have heatsheilding but would much rather put a bend in it if possible and run it down before it goes over the top of the exhaust housing.

i dont have any clear ones here at work.

I can take 1 tonight though.

This is from when I first got the car so things have changed a bit now but you will see how tight it is for space with a t04z.

Actually now that I look at my pictures, its routed more over the front side of the turbo than the rear... lol

I will take a couple tonight in decent light (although I do have a dark basement) and post them tomorrow.

I will have to drive down your way soon Kristel. I am just in Dickson so its not far.

I need some motivation to finish my car at the moment anyway so it would probably be good for me haha!

Use low-light function on the camera :p

No point coming round to see mine anytime soon... Has no engine or gearbox at the moment ;)

Will let you know when it all starts going back together, and you can swing by sometime and check it out :)

When it's back on the road, we should head out to the lake one night and get some pics!

yeah well mine has a flat battery as I hadnt driven it in 5 weeks :/ hahaha

it needs its final tune but I have hesitated because I want to get injectors and go for power over 300kw. If I use the 440cc stockies I am going to be limited by fuel. Finding injectors in AUS for under $600 is impossible now and the exchange rate SUX!

so I have been really lazy. The car drives fine but not tuned and believe me, large cams, large turbo and untuned full aftermarked management dont make for fun driving :(

Um, exhange rate is at the highest it has been for nearly a year!

NOW is the time to be bringing stuff in from the US!!!!!!!! (If I had the cash, i'd be buying a helluva lot of stuff atm!)

Can't believe your car still has stock injectors... WTF?!?!?!

yeah I know!

I bought it like that. I think its becuase it didnt need bigger for the run in. The guy I bought it off would of changed them for the final tune but never did it as he sold it to me.

so I am looking at some 700cc denso's from the states at the moment.
