    Well it's been a while since we have posted some pics. So here is what Bryan has been working on.

    He has mounted the custom built intercooler. This is the biggest intercooler I'v ever seen :shock:

    You should see what this new intercooler looks like compared to the ASM one!

    But just wait till its annodized black along with the nitrous spraybar and will have custom black mesh in front of it.. It will hide pretty damn good :tooth:

    Pretty much bone stock. We did custom black mesh grilles in the front and rear, tinted the tailights, and tinted the windows.. Besides that its as stock looking as possible.. o yes and chrome wheels..

    I think I might have to disagree with your statement about the biggest inter cooler. Here is one in my FWD Mini Van. I will be bring it to the LX & BEYOND NATIONALS for you to see it.

    Holy Shi*t That is bigger. Actually it looks like they could be the same size, so to speak. It looks like yours is stacked and ours is back to back. Very cool nonetheless. :love:

    I realize you might want people to know it's there and be afraid...haha, but
    it would look a lot better painted black in my opinion.

    great build, can't wait to see the 1/4 mile times.

    Once the tabs and anchorage points are welded it is off to be anodized black. This is a change we made. We already had a intercooler installed and then we decided to go larger. It will be black and be behind mesh. It will be hardly noticeable.
