My Tial is quiet as hell unless I'm boosting hard. 1st gear it doesn't blow off at all unless I rev past 5000rpm and hammer down. But when you coming on to it plug your ears! All the tuner guys here hate Tials cus they aren't ricey enough lol I love it though.

i can easily explain how i did it right now. comming out of the intercooler you use a u bend and cut it to make a super tight turn comming around to where the maf is gonna be. use a straight cuppler out of that. run the maf in line with that. use another straight cuppler after that. then at the turn that gos into your engine bay you use a ninety degree bend and cut it to the length that it will be needed to make a forty five degree bend fit next around your fuse box then right into your intake manifold. its fairly simple but hard to work all the little bugs out of the turns and whatnot. search cxracing on ebay and he has 123519235 intercoolers and intercooler piping kits.

what innercooler did you get trix? i'm looking into this big time.. is a better to have a longer/ taller innercooler thats thiner so it's easier for the air to cool it? or a thicker smaller bar?
i was looking at a 26x6x2.75 and a 28x7x2.5 which would be better in your guys opinion.. granted i'll be procharging for at least a bit so i want it to be good for both procharger or t/c if i change my mind lol

Nice vid..can't wait to see what that thing hits on the dyno...is that an ebay turbo i spot? haha with mostly ebay parts? Badass. Most people will say ebay parts are crap but I beg to differ

yeah it fit in there fine... just had to take out the foglight on the driverside to get the 3" piping to fit .
well ordered the injectors today, hopefully I ordered the right ones lol. and hopefully they work
ended up the turbo was fine, I didn't run a restrictor in there and 125 psi of oil pressure... well yeah, just blew right out the seals
