If you wanted to you could quote me and change all of the [IMG] codes to [URL] codes and then they would have links, but this way they all pop up without having to click and wait on each picture.

very nice.. how hard was it to set up that guage cluster? i can make out the air/fuel, what are the other two?
also, i have noticed that there are a lot of people with the zex N2O set up. i have never heard of the brand untill i joined the forum. how much was your set up and how hard was it to install?

Thanks Guys!
A BIG thanks to MP3-Owner for posting the pics of my car...I am a retard and couldnt figure it out.
The gauges are in my sig. They are pretty strait forward to install...you just need to route power and ground+whatever the sender wire is and thats it (if they are electrical some gauges are mechanical). I even hooked them up so I can dim the lighting with my cockpit dimmer switch...at night they look nice with all red lights. I installed them myself but I had my mechanic Jon @ Exact Motorsports install the Fuel Pressure sender on my fuel line.
The flywheel I put in myself with my buddie Mike at his shop so it didnt cost me any labor...just well spent time.
Zex is actually a breeze to install on our cars ...now that I know the correct way to do it...(thanks to Patrick!)...the hardest thing will be running the Nitrous line along the existing fuel lines under the car...the only reason I say it will be hard is because if you dont have the convenence(sp?) of a lift, it will be alot of crawling on your back under the entire length of the car.
I actually got the system from my buddie...it was practically new...but you could get them from a good guy over on the ProbeTalk forums named Harley...here is his site...but prices may have changed slightly...Im not sure...email him for details..he is a really nice guy.

The Exhaust is comprised of a mixture of 2.5inch piping and 2.25in piping...so I decided to go with the resonator...besides, when I remove/replace the 2nd cat section with a strait pipe I will need a resonator to keep it sounding clean and not to rumbly...I like my exhaust thrusty sounding...not rumbly like the Bosal.
Ill mount the wheels on the car today and take some more pics...
The eyebrows are actually white vinyl tape that I cut with a razor blade to fit....Yeah...I know its ghetto...but that tape gives me +5hp at the wheels...so Im hesitant to take it off!

My first post,
Beautiful P5! I love the yellow - I went for the white one.
I have to ask, you removed your Roof Rack, did the dealer give you the plastic "caps" so that you can hide the mounting holes?
I am asking because I cannot find the plastic "caps" anywhere in my car. I asked the dealer and he wants to charge me $122.00 for them!
I think it's a scam myself. Has anyone else experience the missing "caps"??
Thanks to the whole board!

They're supposed to come with the car. It should've been in a clear plastic bag in the hatch along with the front license plate holder. If your car didn't come with them, you should go back to the dealer and demand them.
