So I dropped off my car today at my friend's house. Things being done:

-Adding 18" Magnaflow resonator to get rid of the rasp
-Replacing band clamp to fix small exhaust leak
-All new 3" equal size/equal length intake piping
-Replacing Precision 750hp intercooler (horizontal fin 31.5"x10.3"x3.5" with 2.75" inlet/outlet) with ProCharger 550hp intercooler (vertical fin 18"x12.5"x3" with 3" inlet/outlet) and being modified for 3" dual inlet/single outlet
-Mounting Tial BOV on hot side of piping
-Rewiring MAFs back to OEM
-Replacing OEM radiator with CSF radiator

After this, the only thing left to do is fix my PS leak and get the car retuned.

The last time my car was at Lutz, they bridged the MAFs to hopefully fix the tuning issue I was having because of the way the piping is. I decided to have the piping done RIGHT and now have to convert the MAFs back to OEM so I can have the car tuned properly.

Looks very clean, just the way that other guy should have built it. Will intake temps be low enough though? IC looks kinda small.

it's small but thick (thats what she said) and he's not running much boost so the temps should be fine. The bank 1 Maf is also the IAT so with any OBD II software or the UpRev Cipher logger he can double check.

The intercooler is rated at 550hp. It will do...

The piping is done...With the new 3" intake piping being .25" to .5" bigger, the car won't even idle. Now I'm trying to scramble to find someone with an UpRev cable and find someone who will send me a base map tune. Cars & Coffee is looking doubtful

Awesome. the quest for coolness is looking like it is headed in a successful direction. Looks like that CSF Radiator is in the cards for my build as well, just waiting on the final invoice to begin the install process.
