- RC 750cc injectors
- JVT K serie top mount cast manifold
- autometer boost gauge and oil pressure gauge

I see a cool air intake. It's got a NOS fogger system and a T4 turbo, Dominic. I see an AIC controller. It has direct port nitrous injection. Yeah. And a stand-alone fuel management system. Not a bad way to spend $10,000.

In the second picture. you have dual piping on the driver side!! Is that top piping on the driver side running to the other side of the intercooler? If so.. why did you do it like that... Is that the only way to do it on a tsx? and how much was that turbo manifold for that car. thanks!!

You will need a bigger wastegate if you plan on using a GT35R. First hand Experience talking. You might as well upgrade to the Tial 44mm Wastegate the 1st time!
