Here's a few pics of my engine bay from one year ago, and now in it's current state... Only a few things left to do before I can say it's finally finished. BEFORE:  AFTER:

Those pipes make your throttle a little more responsive?

Very nice.  I wish mine looked that way. Hopefully by next summer it will be. _________________ Drive it like you stole it!

Jesse, lots of hard work sure was worth it, huh? Lookin' good...  Another one to represent all of us bandwidth whores.... Almost time to go in storage... need to get that plenum polished this winter. Time to go bowhunting now. Oops, forgot to set the time back... I've got an hour to kill...   _________________ - Dave J.

Greg,
I didn't notice much difference in performance at all with the hardpipes, although I didn't expect any either. Boost held almost identical to where it was with the stock setup, although I seem to hold a smidge LESS boost towards redline, as expected, considering the pipes are bigger.
Dave,
You're pic there isn't the latest one - there's no radiator cover. ??
J-Rock,
Thanks man... lemme know when you start your detailing project.

Jesse, that's correct... haven't taken any recent ones. Doesn't show powder coated strut bar brackets, new radiator cover, or SS bolts all over the place. How goes it with your radiator cover. UPS take care of it or what?
