My Talon

[sleepydsm]

Got my slimfan /silicone reducers/ some more t bolt clamps from www.siliconeintakes.com, cheap as heck.

I will be installing the short route FMIC, Greddy Type RS BOV (boo!), ghetto rigging a J pipe, installing the GM maf in blow through, possibly installing my Buschur CAI (with custom Rick Shindly bracket), or using the stock one until I can get another silicone reducer.

I'd like some crank vents too!

Anyone know where I can get some rigid carbon fiber sheet?

On saturday I installed my FMIC. It was a lot more work than I remember. I used a pnuematic saw to trim to openings for the endtanks, along with an air hammer with cutting attachment. I then sprayed some matching spray paint over the fresh metal. I used a cutting torch to hack away the steel bumper. I cut a huge chunk out of it, maybe 10lbs. I had no J pipe, so I looking into my extra crap pile I found a perfect pipe from a turbo volvo.

Slim fan went on, Blageo23 did that for me and the connector looks factory!

Only problem was I ordered 3"-2.5" couplers for my GM MAF, I forgot the GM MAF OD is larger than 3" I tried streching them over, didnt work for me at all.

A greddy type RS went on also.

Because I couldn't get the maf in the right spot, I couldnt put on my Buschur CAI.

Yeah, if you haven't done it already, the ABS computer is behind the passenger side panel right under the seat belt motor. There's a big wiring harness that goes through the inside fender in the engine bay up to it that you can toss as well. That thing probably weighs a few pounds by itself.

I will get on it this weekend.

Because it's shitty out, I don't feel like working on my car. (Thats why I have another car lol) If I get my new couplers for my GM MAF today, I'll slap those on.

I dynoed my car due to peer pressure. The car made 209 AWHP on the Dyno Dynamics at DB Performance. First run hit fuel cut, the second two were clean. The car is staying at a steady 15PSI, I believe the atmosphereic dump helped with boost creep a lot.

I also put on a new to me near perfect door and fender to replace my banged up ones. I just need to put on my plastic trim.

Pics soon!
