Would be even neater if the intercooler was right behind the grille and you could see the gearhead logo. I get misty eyed just thinking about it.

I was wondering why it even had a logo haha
Thats when you go find a little intercooler to fit behind the grill and take the output of the stock intercooler and go to lowes and find some ducting tubes and run it into the little intercooler then back into the throttle body. Double intercooler for...sho.
Yea i know too much pressure drop and heat soak on the smaller intercooler then.

Well back to the topic, i ran ghost cam for the first time today. I like it better on videos. To shakey and lurky and stalls randomly. Sounds alright but its not consistant. Jumpy idle 400-700 then its 800 smooth then all jumpy differently again. I have 2 cars cammed but ghost tune is just like different. Then it randomly will stop being choppy and idle normal after 10 seconds or so. Would be better if it was just a constant chop that stayed choppy without reverting back to normal so quick.

It actually sounded better when the engine was blown with a constant misfire.

My GH IC didn't come with a logo.

Mine didn't either. I think it was newly added to the last batch. It did make me want to buy another one tho just so I could have it. Luckily the reasonable voice in my head won that battle.

I get that. I like the cleaness of it all. However the billet black grills like Jasonoftherugar is what I really want.

Fix your bike. It feels bad that your giving all this attention to your car.

What the Unicorn? I will pass on it. The other one behind it...I am really considering it.

Is that the police interceptor grille?

No, I bought the powdercoated mesh from customgrills.com

I pulled the front clip, removed the stock grill, cut the new one, and reinstalled using the stock mounting hardware. Pretty easy, took me 1 hour start to finish.

I just went to the website and it looks like they only sell the straight billet grills for old school cars. I couldn't find any mesh options unless yours was a custom piece?

Purchasing 13+ Exhaust Manifolds today for my 10-12, shipping directly Tasca to Max Power Automotive for custom hand porting. Excited to let my GH Turbos breathe...for once! Should be on my car Mid March! Flow data isnt included so I won't be getting any data. Obviously Ported VS Stock is wayyy better!

Yea man i ported mine with a dremel when the motor was out. Ive done many cars with a little dremel tool on exhaust and intake. Didnt dyno but if it did make a difference it was pretty small. Maybe best to do before and after dyno with just the exhaust manifolds changed

Yea man, with upgraded billet cartridges and dremeled exhaust manifolds and catless downpipes i see around 55-60 wastegate at 16.5-17.5psi. Hard to watch it all at once but my setup is somewhere around there
Oh and the wastegates were moded also. Eventually ill run a manual boost controller and see how much it can handle
