Lol!! That is the cutest little intercooler I've ever seen!

Agreed I thought the same when I saw it. I have never seen this kit was used to the old Squire Remote Kits that were used on the camaro's etc.

We hope to have this all buttoned up tomorrow!

interesting to say the least for the intercooler

This looks like the old kit..aka the original that they shipped out 2 years ago. The inner cooler is tiny. I've got one sitting in a box collecting dust right now along with some rusting pipes. Make sure the pipes that are coming off the inner cooler are coated properly. Otherwise they WILL rust. I know from experience from this kit.
Also I hope they don't have any noise ordnance up there. This kit is extremely loud, add in test pipes and it's unbearable.

Aww yes the threaded FB and rust scandal!

It's my old kit

Not trying to thread jack but if you were only a fly on the wall during my conversation with STS about that issue.:roflpuke2:

Good luck with kit and hope you get some good numbers:ugh2:

:shakes head: o the internet

Welcome to forced induction :tup: you will love it anthony!

Thank you! :tup:

Trust me I'm trying to hate on you. Just warning you of what to look, coming from the 2nd STS system installed on a Z, for with this kit. Word of advice, get some resonated test pipes and put another resonator in line. With the test pipes you will see a lot better numbers since your cats restrict air flow to the turbo.

Yes we already spoke with the client and he specifically asked about adding in the resonators. Yes, it is a bit on the loud side LOL!

The pipes do look to be coated and thank you for pointing that out. We really can not wait to get this tuned, we are just making sure everything is all good prior to tunning.

Just make sure the 2 pipes on the cold side of the inner cooler are coated. Those were the 2 pipes that rusted like a mofo on my kit. I know the methanol had a lot to do with it but hey better safe than sorry. @Nism0...check your filter often. I forgot and under heavy boost I crushed my filter from it trying to suck in air. Good luck and you've got to beat 481whp and 427wtq on an AT7.:tup: ........ un tuned.

A few pics of the kit installed and on our lift:
