Wes got the test box finished up yesterday, which was a very cool birthday present. I am out of town til tomorrow evening, but will test it out when I get home and let ya'll know how it goes. If any changes are needed I will head back down to waterjet on Friday and get it all squared away.

My welder has been swamped and hasn't gotten the box ready for me yet. He is going to try and get it done today or tomorrow.

It's installed so you can't really see anything different from the old one.

Having issues with it and still working out some bugs... didn't have any extra money to pay for more CAD work and machining, so I've been focused on getting the airboxes produced to bank roll the final stretch on this project. Everything is pretty much ready, but there are a couple things that...

Very much this. What I like to do is lower the boost as much as possible and get the AFR to 11.0, then slowly raise boost 1psi at a time while adding extra fuel along the way as needed. Ideally I like to run 11.5 on the wideband, but I don't see much variation day to day with my EMS setup. If...

For reference, here is what the anodized pieces look like: Clear: Black:

No the standard silver finish is clear anodized. I also offer it bare for anyone that wants to do their own finish.

Yeah they are both really pricy these days.

UPDATE: I had a 2nd gen box cut today down at waterjet for test fitting. Got it dropped off with my welder for assembly this afternoon and he is going to get it bent and welded as soon as possible. I should have it back from him before the weekend, and I'll test it for fitment right away. I...

I won't say never, but I'm not really planning on it. If I made one I would insist on using either a Spearco WAVE core or a Garrett core, and those are both in the 600 dollar neighborhood with endtanks. Add in couplers/piping and my cost is already over 800 not including welding or finishing. I...

As for the glass, I used a clear silicone on the first kits that a few people (including myself) have had issues with letting loose. I switched to a black silicone (ultra RTV) that holds up much better to the heat and vibration, and all future kits will use that. Mine has been running strong for...

I have the specs at home and will PM it to you tonight. I might even have a set or two of the butterflies stashed away, and if so would be willing to send you a set so you don't have to buy the 5-pack.

Thanks for posting the pic. Very nice job on the piping, that bay looks fantastic. The fasteners you have actually are DZUS fasteners, they are just slotted instead of butterfly. I did those slotted ones for a few customers as a custom option in the first GB. The 2 styles are otherwise...

I definitely agree with that, and personally like a little identifying flare on things like this as long as it isn't overdone. I also know from my intake manifold GB's that a lot of people want it to be as clean and factory looking as possible. A small badge with a strip of 3M double sided tape...

The best solution for this is probably to just include a loose badge and leave it up to each customer to decide where it goes. I know a lot of people prefer the clean badge-less look, while others like the logo and want to display it.

I will most likely be putting a badge on the inside of the lid.

Easiest spot is to use the bolt that's on the front passenger corner of the battery tray.
