Yeah, I realized that after I got them, although what I want to do is just smoke out the reflective bowl so I still get some reflection.

Anyways! That's not it, look for something that a bored person and a laser engraver with some plastic. Look at the grill.

Yep! The T5 Badges, or the R badge. I don't have a big choice of fonts though. I can make keychains too

Basically is goes between the compressor hose and the waste gate hose. At the stock EBC remove the hose from the compressor and the hose to the waste gate and put the MBC inline there just make sure it is the right way.

Then you should have a hose that plugs into the induction hose by the Mass flow. It usually attaches to the underside of the hose. Remove the hose and put a cap on the plastic hard part. Then the EBC will only be connected by the electrical plug. That is how you need to leave it so the check engine light stays off.

Then take a couple of test drives to adjust it to where you want it.

If you get confused the hood should also have a vacuum diagram to tell you what color dots are for what this way you know you got the right hoses.

Post back how it comes out. I will not be back on until tomorrow night though.

Also PM me with the prices you are going to want for an R badge and keychain.

I'm still working on it. I put it in, then at the drags I couldn't get a consistant time so I took it out.

A lot of people seemed to like my car at the drags. They didn't think my brick could go 14.87. I think they liked it cause it was a lot cleaner then most other cars out there.

For those that were wondering, I am running the VVME HID kits. 6000K H1 for the headlights, 4300K 9006 for the fogs.

did you let the ecu learn the new boost settings before you tracked it?

Maybe a boost leak?
