New pics of ETS piping and intake! Also custom battery tray!

Thought i would snap a few pics of the new setup today. Its ets short route piping with intake and 3.5 inch core. I also had a buddy fab me up a small battery tray. I had the tray made and went and bout a civic battery and it turned out really nice. Could not justify to spend the money on a new battery kit in upwards of 200+ so i got with him and he came up with this. He did a great job on it and turned out awesome!









Cheers!

Matt

Car seems to pull well for not being tuned. I changed a few thigns around this time from last time. This time i have the following

IX turbo
FP 4r cams
ETS UICP
ETS LICP
ETS Intake
ETS 3.5 ic
Hallman boost controller

Old setup
IX turbo
Injen intake
Injen UICP
Buschur RACE FMIC
HKS 280
AEM tru boost
Full TBE
Megan o2

All in all car seems to run better with these new mods. I think once tuned it will out perform the other setup by far.

You could've also moved your stock battery to the trunk.

I had thought about this, but its a lot of work to move it back there, and i think the smaller battery up front looks nice. I could have done both but decided to go this route. Honestly about the same price after i buy all the wiring the fuse holder and what not! Also stock bov is something i havent gotten around to swapping out. I had a thread posted for a stock IX but couldnt find one! It will come eventually, but other priorities gotta come first!

Cheers!

I also could not be happier with ETS products. They are very well priced, not taking away from the other vendors, and the quality is by far some of the best i have saw. You cant beat the customer either! You can atleast call and not feel stupid asking a question! I have had quite a few different setups as well!

Cheers!
