Just tell everyone you backed into a guardrail going 120.

Unfortunately (or fortunately?) the rear of this car is all anyone will see after you complete this build

Haha a car isn't worth losing my girlfriend over! I guess it's time for the Nismo rear end, but that's probably not until 2018.


I worked all afternoon on it today, got the alternator back on and tightened the intercooler piping clamps.
I also got the driver side inlet done. Just need to somehow tighten that darn clamp.

Downpipes finished this morning! I started it up and filled it up with coolant and no leaks so far. I honestly expected it to be louder but it's pretty quiet! Ordering the inlet filters tonight and hopefully will be getting my base tune soon.

Sorry for the snapchat video. I was too lazy to record another one.

Truth, I remember when I started my focus ST with just the down pipe it was super quiet.

Great job putting this together. So few interesting builds going on right now.
I think you're making believers out of your skeptics!

Thank you guys! I will be sticking with this exhaust for a bit until I can afford doing a GT-R style exhaust.

I have the whole driver side wrapped up except connecting the BOVs to the manifold.
I was wondering if it's possible to just tap the brake booster hose instead of having to drill the manifold? If anybody knows let me know please!

Only thing left aside from BOVs/installing the fuel pump is this. I just need to connect them together. I think I'm too lazy to figure it out slowly so I'll just have the shop do it Monday for me.

There is a vacuum port for the EVAP system right behind each throttle body flange on the intake manifold. On each side is a short 90 degree vacuum hose connecting the EVAP pipe to just behind the throttle flange. I remove the 90 degree hose and install a T fitting with a couple 1" long sections of hose. The straight run leg of the T left open, I send to each BOV. Years of testing, works perfect.

Thank you so much! I ordered the T fittings and they should be here Monday!

Only major thing to do is to install the 340 fuel pump and the wiring kit bought from you
