Bout time. Thanks to Jake BrakeIH, I searched thru 10 pgs. of Chris's posts on his turbo build, usu. found stuff on his TVS build..

On my 04 LS, IIRC, my light never worked. GM prolly just made the hood lites on the LTs work.

Glad its working out for you!
I still may try to drill some holes to reduce the sound a bit, what do you think? Well, I know what you THINK...let me put it this way, and I going to **** anything up by putting a couple small holes in the valleys of the cog pulleys?

Yeah I think I'm going to wait. It's still 100+ degrees outside at 11pm this time of year, gotta wait till it starts to cool down at night.

Meh....not only will the times be slower, but it will be really uncomfortable just being out there. I can wait a few months for track times.

Oh, here's some pics for the twin filter crowd On the second pic, notice the air pulling from right behind the radiator and the intercooler not being hooked up. Can you say 190* IAT's? Couldn't wait to get rid of that setup....only lasted two days and I just did it to get the damn thing running and drivable.

You realize this is an old pic, and the pic in my first post is current right?

HOLY ****!! I've missed out on so much! I've been workin my *** of since hurricane Ike last September. I just read through your whole install thread. Looks like your setup is kickin ***. Those headers seem really nice too.

Not keeping up with this forum has saved me a little cash but damnit now im getting that urge again.

Also I mounted my reservoir and pump to the air cleaner box to keep from having to route the hoses over the engine on my 122 inlet forward. Then I mounted the intercooler backwards (with the nipples on the passenger side) behind the lower valance, kinda like where your air to air intercooler was. Might help to clean things up even further for the haters around here lol. Not that your engine bay really needs it. It's lookin really damn good.

Fonzy tap used to work on my underhood lamp. used to

btw my truck hates your tvs2300 too.
