Yeah i like the look of the 4in going to the TB. Currently i have a 3-4in silicone adapter right at the TB and it annoys me the way it looks. I guess the look is a personal preference thing.

Run it. Looks good man. Are the stock heater hose outlet/inlet press fit in the water pump? How did you pull them out?

Yes they are press in. Basically i flatened them with pliers. Then twisted them back and forth a little. Then put vice grips on them and hit the vice grips with a hammer.

Why you say that richard? I would think the increase in volume would drop pressure and increase velocity?

The pipe is all welded up. Bungs for the meth nozzles and iat sensor all burned into the pipe. I need to get some shorter lines for the nozzles. Those are 10inches. The smallest pre-made ones i can find are 6inches. I have not choosen the color yet so it is just plain self-etching primer on there now. I still need to rolls some beads into the pipe ends but i will save that for another day.

Never thought I'd say this about injectors, but those are sexy !!


I've heard a lot of good things about ID injectors, please keep us posted on them and how you like them.
