My New Intercooler/ Piping *Pics*

Whats up guys, just thought I would put some pics up of my new OBX Intercooler and Injen Intake/ Piping. I just finished today and have some pics of how it went. I spent 300 on the intercooler and 400 on the piping so all this for less than a grand isnt so bad

FYI,
You're missing part of your compressor wheel! It's always a good idea to run a filter!

It also looks like your compressor wheel is contacting your housing...check for excessive radial and axial shaft movement.

Looks good but that sucks that a brand new OBX front mount would not have tabs that lined up perfect. The right tab is held up by a zip tie? I bet the middle and left bolts will hold it fine but that still annoying for a new front mount that you paid your hard earned money to buy.

lol i know... its ok though, i wasnt planning on it fitting perfect... My previous cars' aftermarket parts: (hoods, fenders, intake) would never line up right so i always assume it wont fit perfect but i was very impressed with how the Injen lined up! After doing this, i noticed the low end power was much higher, and the turbo spool sounds great!
