My ETS Review (ETS Products INSIDE)

In hope of removing restriction and improving power in my setup. I went ahead and order the following parts from ETS.

ETS 4" Intercooler
ETS 2.5" Short Route Upper Intercooler Piping
ETS Small Battery Kit
ETS 4" Intake with filter
GM 3" MAF Sensor
MAF Translator (Still have not received)
Tial 50mm BOV

My current setup now:
Full Race Manifold t3
Full Race 3" Downpipe
Garrett GT3076r
Tial 44mm Wastegate
PTE 780cc injecctors

I have not road tested the car yet, due to not having maf translator, but once I get home from my cruise I will follow-up on tuning complications and power-out puts. I am hoping for more response and power.

Now on a the review. I ordered my parts from ETS for my birthday around May 1-2nd. Tom was extremely helpful, and customer service was amazing. Every time I call there wasn't a hold time or any lies about my parts.

I received the parts yesterday, the package when through 9 different UPS locations and arrived here in perfect shape. So kudos to ETS for the amazing packaging.

Only gripes, the black coating comes off extremely easy, and its been almost a month and the car still isn't running. But good news, I am leaving for a cruise tomorrow so I have a week to received the MAF translator from ETS.

Overall ETS gets two thumbs up and I would defiantly order more parts from them in the future.

******Last note, coming from the honda world intercooler piping always being aluminum. I don't understand why everyone uses stainless steel piping for intercooler piping.*******

Old setup, very restrictive stock intake and stock maf, and stock intercooler.


New ETS stuff


ETS Intercooler, this intercooler is truly a work of art.

The setup looks great and awesome installed pics! Keep us updated when you get the tune complete, I bet that will all produce a really nice result!

In reference to the steel IC piping, it is used so that the SS T-bolt clamps we include can be tightened down such that blown off IC piping is a thing of the past. Aluminum piping can be crushed relatively easily under the force these clamps can produce, which is why many of the companies providing their piping in aluminum include worm drive clamps that can't apply as much force.
