Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeew!

 

Hell yeah mate, that looks awesome :D

 

 

AFAIK the I.D. on Suby Vac hoses is 3.5mm (Correct me if I'm wrong) so either 4mm or 3mm silicone would do the trick.  I chose 3mm for a couple reasons....

1) Silicone is not as firm as OEM ones and boost lines may stretch?????. 

2) I would have to cable tie all my restrictor pills in place on 4mm hose.... Looks shit.

Needs more green.


I like to think of it as borrowing someone's car and driving it better than them.

IMO, needs less red hoses, peel twin turbo sticker off cover and put some black split corrugated conduit over that stereo power cable.

 

Looks pretty clean though.

Yeah that cable needs to be tucked back away! It was just out because I needed to re hook it up to give my seat some movement :D

I need to work my magic with some heat proof paint again.

Is pulling apart the alternator as simple as pulling it apart? Or are there tricks that need to be followed?

It is pretty straight forward.

 

Theres a few little tricks, the hardest part is getting the pulley nut undone.
