Finally got around to painting the other side of the dash piece black since white looked like garbage. Also threw a piece of aluminum diamond plate (courtesy of KVGTO) so there was someplace to put the MSD box and fuel injection ECU. It was getting dark as I finished this part so the pictures are kinda fuzzy.
Next up was the 1.5" cowl hood I ordered a few weeks ago. This will allow a for larger air filter and will help cool the engine...and yes it will be painted black
Taping down to drill holes
The filter is from Summit, its a 14x3, I planned to go with one that had a filter top but after some research it turns out 9/10 times you end up losing power because of the lack of air velocity with no solid top. (points if anyone actually knows what the hell I'm on about)
Getting ready to deface a classic Porsche...
The dremel did a great job of cutting through the aluminum, I was planning on using a jigsaw but this seemed a lot more precise. Once the air shroud (16" cake pan) arrives, Ill make it a little bigger and throw the filter on.
The anti-prius badge
Last but not least heres a quick run someone had in their daily beater SC400 (modded~270hp) with a new IS-F and CL63
also excuse the commentary, it was a long day and someone had to make a 2 hour trip up to NY...which actually ended up being an hour :D
