Indy Race Core is on

[Van]

The IRC Spearco 2-216 fmic is on her. It only took me all freakin' weekend to uninstall my hks fmic, install this one, fab up all new piping, and get them welded up, have a shitload more cut out of the bumper, etc., hehe. 10"x 28"x 3.5" of fmic.

Here is a shitty pic for now...

man that looks beautiful.:D

what was the total price on the core? still around $800?

[Van]

Total cost for me, with all factors considered, was $550 and a weekend.

This was for the fmic, new "raw" pipes, welding pipes, paint, cut-off wheels, all new 2.5" t-bolt clamps and a new $20 2.25x2.5" silicone reducing coupler.

The difference is amazing, especially down low in the rpm band as boost is building. The extra inch of fmic thickness over my hks set-up and the shorter piping makes a big difference in airflow and response.

the 2-216 was one of my choices for an FMIC. but haveing a 2g and trying to route it to the stock compressor outlet would not make it worth it. maybe when i get a real turbo i could upgrade to it.
