Re: Brown Santa Came early this year...
It looks like they had a small design change though. In the pictures on all of the sites it didnt have the extra support between the runners, now it just has a bracket on both sides.

Unfortunatly im still in process of setting up with them.
I managed to get a total of $645 out of them but they still owe me for the AEM Wideband that they did not deliver.

Re: Brown Santa Came early this year...
Blew the tranny after 2 weeks on the TCUGO and didnt feel like messing with a freakin automatic anymore. Ended up that my buddy was selling the 95 GST with a 6bolt, dsmlink and a bunch of other stuff for only $2000, Took all of my parts off of the GSX, and sold it cheap. Bought the GST 2 days after it blew up. and put on all of my parts, which is where i stand now.

Re: Brown Santa Came early this year...

Re: Brown Santa Came early this year...
May I ask why you decided to go through Extremepsi rather than Magnus themselves?

Re: Brown Santa Came early this year...
Better price, and ive purchased from them before.
Messed up thing is that i have to modify my throttle body because the peice that rotates (on the outside of the body) hits the flange. ::FUCK SHIT FUCK::

Re: Brown Santa Came early this year...
Make one, or I think some people sell kits to mount everything. Looks pretty sweet though.

Re: Brown Santa Came early this year...
Mount the pack over by the driverside strut tower. Thats the most commen spot I see it at. Or custom a mount on the firewall.

Re: Brown Santa Came early this year...
Well tonight i gotta go back to the stocker. had a couple problems that i need to resolve first.
First off: The manifold doesnt have a flange for the sensor on top of the manifold. and doesnt have a spot for this little capacitor looking thingy.
Secondly: Im not sure about this, but does the manifold need to be grounded like the stock one?
Thirdly: (this has already been fixed) but i had to shave the throttle body stop (the metal that the idle adjustment screw screws into) because it was hitting the flange on the manifold.
Fourthly: The car wont start with everything on (except the sensor, and the ground strap and the capacitor thingy) Im not sure if the above is what is wrong with it. or if its something else (like the emmissions shit)
and finally: the Upper IC Pipe that goes from the throttle body needs to be modified or something needs to happen, its pushing into the battery and doesnt connect right up to the other IC piping.
If any of you could shed some light on this it would make me wary wary wappy. thanks
Tom

Re: Brown Santa Came early this year...
Here are some answers to some of your questions (please view attached pictures). I custom fabbed my own coil pack holder. I've had numerous comments on it. I've built a couple for other people too from the dsmlink forum. Also is a picture of where i put that little capacitor looking thingy. I've attached a couple pictures of what i did with the battery situation. I purchased an odyssey battery off ebay. The hold down bracket was modified by cutting it in 1/2 and shortening it. Nice and compact but don't leave your big amp/stereo run too long without your car running. You'll need a jump start. I believe some of the Honda batteries will work also. I modified my UICP a little bit also.

Re: Brown Santa Came early this year...
The honda battery that is commonly used is a Group 51 or 51R(reversed terminals) It is a very narrow battery. Maybe 4" by 10" when looking down on it.
