nice job! :bt: Is that a BPT I see? Or just a BP?

Just a BP for now. I can't decide if I am going to do a monster NA or go turbo.

Here's my intake. RX7 AFM, stock tubing...125whp

I'm not going to get an intake til I get my stand alone engine management so I can use a MAP sensor.

Can't you take off the resonator?

How about using a stainless steel resevoir for your coolant, that's what I'm planning on using.

BTW from where do you get your cold air, because your filter is in a hole that's completely closed at the bottom (at least it is at my car)

I've been meaning to order an aluminum one from jegs. Haven't got around to it yet.

I get the cold air from a hole I cut in the bottom. I just put som foamboard over the top of that pocket to seal out hot air. It looks like a hack job but it works.

Not realy. I noticed increased performance w/o it. I just pluged the throttle bypass tube into a fitting at the back of the tube.

Do you have a picture of the hole?? I'm planning on doing a similar thing and always looking for inspiration
