We have the EMS running in the shop Evo X to work out the drivability, etc. We are in the process of making a custom Intake manifold. Once we are finished with the intake then we will post some more pics.

The support would be from Gems themselves. We plugged our unit in and had the car running in around 30 minutes. The software is similar to the AEM.

Any shots of the intake manifold off the car, looks like a wild setup! Did you end up using the stock runners and then welding in a larger capacity "surge" tank?

Have you had any problems with heat off the exhaust runners being unwrapped? One of my plastic connectors on the driver side of the valve cover needed some DEI cool tape to reflect the heat away as the connector was going molten.

I'll see if I can find a pic to post up for you. We used the stock runners and Jeff made a nice big plenum.

We have just about everything wrapped under the turbo and will have some shields for the cam sensor, etc.

Now this is what I'm talking about!

It was only a matter of time but finally someone is bombing the 4B11 out!

Great work. Can't wait to see the results. Good luck.

Thanks, good job guys.. Seems like a lot of the great tuners are up that way. I've been following this particular build on a couple forums, lol.
