There is a sticker on top of the intercooler that says "BLITZ" so I would guess Blitz LM

ootranceformeroo · 04-26-2005, 12:13 AM

haha i have that same ziptie box! hahah looks good.

shortandsour · 04-26-2005, 12:15 AM

did you use the brackets i gave you?

khoadogg · 04-26-2005, 01:42 AM

The brackets didn't really work. We had to bang and fab and in the end they were slightly off from the pipes. Good thing we used zip ties to hold it in place. We just used the horn brackets to hold the fmic in and the pipes to secure it. The turbo sure does sound louder and feels lots faster. i just have to find a damn bigger radiator now! grrr... Hope it's not a boostleak making the sound.

i got a greddy fmic and my turbo (t25) spools really quickly and makes lots of noise ( 13psi). So i dont think that you have a boost leak. just check your boost gauge and it will tell you.

S13 Charlie · 04-26-2005, 10:46 AM

damn, khoa, lookin' good!

Did you get your wheel lugs fixed up yet? Wouldn't want a wheel to fly off while test driving the new IC!

khoadogg · 04-26-2005, 07:33 PM

It's fixed. New one was installed. The gauge reads up to 1bar and spikes to 1.12bars on occasion. Going to tune it down to .85 or so. Should I take the cat out?
