    Thanks for the contribution!

    Be sure to sort out that nasty kink in the little hose on the FPR end of your fuel rail.

    Enjoy!

        Haha, I knew someone would catch that!

        The original started leaking out of the blue so I threw a piece of whatever hose I had on there. Also have to replace the two rubber feed and return lines before it goes off to the exhaust shop.

                Thanks for bumping this! I need to put in my updated pic :)

                This configuration won't be staying long (going Megasquirt and FMIC over the winter) but it was a fun project!

                                        It seems like it' more for racecars changing water every pass.

                                            Thank you guys! I am actually thrilled with how the bay looks, so OEM+. I'm actually kind of sad to ditch the OEM IC, but it gets so heatsoaked there that it's acutally adding heat to be intake charge

                                            I've been doing lots of reading as well, and while they have very low pressure drops, I'm not sure the added complexity of 2 loops and a pump is worth it.

                                            I've heard similar things. Then again, nearly all OEMs (BMW, Merc, Audi, etc) are running water/air these days. It's nearly impossible to find air/air outside the Evo/WRX crowd, at least as far as OEM goes.

                                                        Here's my high compression, 292 cammed B34 on chipped 1.3. Still need to tidy up a couple wires but its functional as is. Finially finished break-in and took it for a romp and Jesus lord its retarded fast. In my stripped out car+3.73 I really don't see why you would need any more power. My car has a fuel cell no abs, crank windows ect, probably weighs around 2400 max. If you're wondering if you should do an M30 swap, DO IT!
