What have you done to your MSP today?

Pull off the Greddy S and put on Turbo XS H, not the RFL. I like it so far, I did it at work and only drove it around the parking lot so I need to play with it more. It was time for a different sound. The type S is a quality bov though.

what size is the inlet for it? I've been finding conflicting information (1" or 3/4")... I am looking to pick up either the Turbo XS type S or type H

I didn't measure and bought it used, but I believe it is 1". The inlet matches up size wise with the Greddy Type S. I am pretty sure mine is the Type H, just a polished silver cylinder with six small vents around the circumference. The TXS Type S is another color right?
 
here are the fogs we just put in..ill post more pics when the fmic is put in this weekend

I would lose the lip, I dont like the 3.5 kit. I think it would look cleaner with no lip and just the fogs. When you look at it you can tell it is aftermarket and it almost looks forced. In my opinion you want them to look factory.
 
Finally getting all my parts together . will be ready to start the first phase of mods on my car . Cannot wait to join the modded ranks
 
Ooooooh .. I completely forgot I even posted about my GC's in here. I'm definitely gonna check out that How-To. Thanks much!

.. Hopefully it's something I can do on my own with a limited amount of tools. Cause I can't even turn the friggin' wheel anymore without it sounding absolutely awful.

P.S. -- I friggin' love this colder weather! No more humidity and grunting MSP! This is, without a doubt, my favorite time of the year. I haven't winterized my car yet and it just feeds off the lower temperatures. I was pulling out of a gas station this past week, and didn't catch traction till third gear. Woooooo!

that was the origanal plan but once we took off the lip we noticed the bumper was dented in quite a bit the first owner must have hit a curb or something pretty hard..it dose looked forced but its better then a dented up bumper

i dropped my msp off today to get wheel bearings and they are gonna check out my axles while its all apart. i have like a grocery list of s*** for the shop to do to it..wont get it back until friday. my msp loves the cold weather also.
 
Removed my "Oh So Trustworthy" MBC. Boost is holding steady at 9psi now! Cold weather is the MSP's biggest friend!
 
Yeah, my msp is in love with the cold weather so far ... i'm getting all pumped to see snow flurries ...
 
well not today but last night...i finally got a sandwich plate and tried to hook up my oil pressure gauge. thought i did everything right but it wont work. i got the plate on, sensor in, plugs in the extra holes (used a hi-temp sealant), wire from sender to gauge, power and ground off the same wires that power/ground my wideband.

i forgot the ground the sender so im hoping that is the only problem. any other ideas if that doesnt work?

Be careful, mine leaked.

sandwich plate? i got it on there pretty tight and same with the oil filter.

should have paid attention to the instructions in the first place. the lack of ground on the sender was the problem. it works fine now.(RTM)

i also now finally have matching colors on my gauges. i had my boost gauge a long time before my oil press so the little red bulb cover on my boost gauge had worn down some. boost was orange and oil press was red. i didnt have anymore covers so i just colored the bulbs with an orange sharpy. matches better than ever.(cabpatch)
