Needless to say my Injen Lower ic pipe is for sale now haaaa
No no no it wasn't that your injen licp did not meet up what so ever with your Fp chrome outlet that you sent , so what we ended up doing was using a Ams licp since the way the Ams pipe was designed to just desperate in 2 pieces .

thats REAL GOOD TO HEAR seriously. any chance you can get pics of the ams pipe that was rigged up for the fp ss 02 turbo pipe as many people are curious for sure. Its a ***** pipe for sure to work with but the benifits are good. LOL i guess my TURBO Wheels finally spun for the first time lol. only took 8 months after purchase warranty is almost over on it LOL. SO how goes your Lancer turbo project??

Your so lucky to be down there around that stuff lol been awhile for me.

Its not rigged in any way , the Ams licp pipe is designed to work with all stock housing turbos because they do have a removable piece .

What were are only using is the U turn on it and one side of course to the IC and the other to the turbo outlet piece you got .

And my car is running great

Its been boosted for a while with a 16G 10.5 @ 10psi

that is funny, but I could imagine you would run out of characters with that long sig. Congrats on the turbo wheel spinning! Have you registered it with FP?

Hopefully my motor is cranked this coming week. Then I'll be down to English in a week or two to pick her up! (they'll need to put miles on, get a break-in tune, and a few odds/ends to finish up). I can't wait!

Has something like this been done on the Mona Lisa, or is it planned? (click the video to see increases + dyno sheet) It would be great to see power gains over a ported stock mani.

edit - finally found the comparison. I can't believe only one customer has this thing compared, and not on a dyno (though VDR can be pretty close, depending), and the comparison is against a stock manifold. I think I read that more than 25 have sold; where are the comparisons???

I think i registered it back in the day dont remember. Ill call robert at fp and speak with him next week. I was the first to convert fp red to fp black but instead since mine was brand new fp red they just swapped me for a fp black. so aniel put all my information in the system back in december. dont know if that counts as be registered or not
