            yeah, there's a bunch of other stuff you'd have to learn first. a write up for each part would fill a book that others can and have written much better than I ever could.

                The RD one is cool, but it's a kit that includes the coil cover and the injector rail/coil harness cover, which I'm not going to be using, I like the way it looks better without it, like so:

                  Was this before he switched to the stock airbox? And before he plugged in the coolant temp sensor wiring?

Sorry for the huge pictures but i uploaded them awhile back and didn't feel like resizeing them and uploading again.



                      Did you primer and clear coat as well? Would you happen to have a link to the paint? I want this exact finish, looks great.
