What have you done to your MSP today?

OK.. so I could fab up something pretty similar with those 2.5" couplers with 1" outlets off the side. I need 1 for the hotpipe and 1 for my intake, some 1" pipe, and some BPV hose.. then my MAF goes back to where it belongs. PERFECT. thanks man!

Yeah.. I saw it. But the prices are kind of high for this stuff and I don't like how the seller is making the buyer pay the paypal fees as well. If thats not against the rules.. it should be.

Im losing money on all parts so I dont see how my prices aint fair. Furthermore most parts are rare and hard to come by. I rather not get into an argument though I just dont see the point of your statetement other than create drama. If you dont like the prices then dont buy it.

Your going to lose money on second hand parts. and I'm not arguing with you.. you posted here. I didn't say anything on your actual post. I'm not creating drama.. I'm calling it like I see it.
 
its all top notch stuff that is hard to find/expensive.. get used to it. limited car with limited aftermarket support.
 
The part about limited following is exactly right its not like everyone is driving and modding proteges if so then they would be called Honda civics

OK.. I'm confused. so its routing from the hot pipe, into the INTAKE? like the pipe off the turbo? OR does it go into the coldpipe, to the throttle body? Are you saying that you used an injen intake and fabbed it to work as part of the coldpipe? i want to be clear about this, because a setup like this is kind of the direction I was thinking about going.

Not sure if you understand now, but he is running a BPV and not a BOV. Therefore he is venting back into the intake rather than the atmosphere. This is the stock setup. Relocated MAF and BOV are what people usually run with a FMIC, especially with the do-it-yourself kits.

All true. However I think all of his prices are reasonable.

I agree. Which means limited market for buyers. People are willing to pay top notch for top notch products.
 
all i can say, im glad i got in for my popes when i did.. and waited a full 12 months for delivery.. if i had to buy them now it would be well over $1000 usd.... defintely gonna follow your build alamo. gonna fish the msp motor out soon and start taking it apart. i think it might rot if i leave it in there too long with no fluids.

turbo p5 is pretty fun though i wish it had more muscle with the msp setup. its loud due to my sri and i call her weezy due to the hks valve having been modified to work properly. i cant drive that car at all out of boost or at least some spool from the turbo.. im tempted to put the stock msp intake back in and recirculate the hks to shut her up lol.

i love spool.. but not at 2000 rpm with my foot rested on the pedal.
 
Someone buy my car. No third gear and a turbo that's pushing oil.
 
So this weekend I was led to my brothers house for a very large surprise. I had no idea that he had got a bunch of people together, some from on here some not, and bought another msp. #1250 titanium gray. He set it up 5 months ago and they all put time, money, parts, etc etc into getting this car ready. On Saturday I was led to my brothers house by my wife, who had only known since Monday. I was blind folded then they revealed to me about what had been going on for 5 months. It moved me so much that people cared about me enough to all go in and buy me another one, after my last one was taken from me. She doesn't have a motor in it yet but we are working on that. Having to gather some of the parts needed. So here she is. My second msp. Thanks anyone on here that helped my brother out with this. It means more than I could ever express.
