This afternoon I installed new upper intercooler piping and a Greddy Type S Blow off valve on the car. It was actually a pretty easy install. I did it in about an hour and a half and it turned out really well.
Here is the old version, and
here is what it looks like now.
I also helped Nathan install some mirrors on his accord. It needed them
pretty badly. The new ones are power and have turn signals in them, which is dope. It was interesting hooking the mirrors to his existing power controls, especially since the box that it came with was from another country and every word was spelled wrong... The turn signal lights were pretty easy once we got a wiring diagram from Grimes Automotive, but routing the wires into the car sucked sooo bad. Here is a picture of the
front and the
back of the mirrors.

Took it for the first spin.
It is sooo much faster
The turbo is a lot louder
The Whoosh sound is louder when letting off of boost (plus there is a cool whistle at the end)
