any more pics of your compost heap?
That cold side IC pipe looks like a fun ride. Was there any scientific point behind that long ass bov pipe? or just filling the void left by the A:W IC? :gay:

how come your valve cover has recessed letters like the 1.6?

Yeah, I was going to ask why not just keep going right out the mouth of the front bumper, throw a 90° on it and add about a foot in straight piping, then affix one of those little flapper doors to the top of the stack so rain water doesn't get in...like a big-rig's exhaust stack :eek5:

You'd have to ask the designer. He goes by the name Corky Bell.

by the way, that bling bling silver powder coat is already jacked. You can see where I tried to clean it up on that bov dick how it's all washed out and pale gray instead of chrome-ish.

highly not recommended. I guess winter project is yanking all the hot side pipes and having them silver ceramic coated.

Lets see, there's a full roadstersport + racing beat head-to-tip setup, a 2.5-3" downpipe, random parts of a 3" midpipe, UGLY 3-bolt flanges, a 3" muffler, stock 2001 midpipe and manifold, and some leftover 4" pipe from my new intake. and god knows what else.

Here's the exhaust that's on the car now (muffler + midpipe, old photo)
