A clean turbo install
 
1 Attachment(s)
Some things just defy explanation...

This is what happens when you measure a specific task in terms of the number of beers it will take to complete...

Oil change? That's a one beer job. Brakes? It might take you two Molsen Lights to pull it off.

But this...looks like a twelve pack job to me.

i should really get fkd up, and see what kind of muffeler job i can do..

I bet he doesn't have heat problems under his hood. Just fyi though I actually though about buying an extra obx header and turning the flange on it upside down, re-welding it and making the header come out the hood of the car...you could very easily take the collector and weld on a turbo flange and do the same thing,....however if I did it it would look 15X's cleaner!

Scary, but funny.

I bet it's fast though, and it definitely is pulling cold air

Sleeper would mean putting a cardboard box over that thing...
And try not to offend the human race (by saying people), you should narrow down
the dumber and dumber to honda owners in general.

But if the header came out of the hood...and got wet...wouldn't that be a bad thing? Ha ha.

That just looks fugly...lol.

To some what quote Matty:
[It's] a small price to pay when you're running side by side with that pesky Evo.
