Don't think I've ever posted my KA up on Nicoclub for people to comment on. I'm currently running the car N/A to learn how to better tune the aem ems so that I can have a good grasp on it when I go to boost it in the winter :D I'll likely be dynoing the car next month just to dyno it and see how it does. Onto pictures! I bought the car with 82,174 ORGINAL miles on it :D

I HATE the stock two piece design, I understand where it's "better" for low end torque due to the length of the runners but I feel no appreciatable loss of torque. The car still rips just fine. I'm currently running no idle air control at all and the car will start right up and idle steady at about 1,000 rpms without so much as a hesitation. It also made things easy when I installed my 2 bar map sensor from AEM, it just threaded into one of the extra ports they designed into it ;) All in all, I have no real complaints about it. The only qualm I had was making a proper bypass hose and even now I'm not 100% happy about it since it's a little longer than I want. I found a gates hose from my work that was prebent and then bent it at a different location in order to turn it back. I should get the part number for others because it held me up for a minute figuring it out.

Sorry for the book lol I recommend getting it. and I HIGHLY recommend the AEM EMS. I love it.

Well that's good, because I tend to rant when asked a question. Feel free to ask any questions you may want to ask, I'll do what I can to help. And I'll try to keep this updated as I get closer to turboland.

Real clean man. It shows in your car that you take your time.
Jealous of your chase bays brake line kit, I've been wanting to buy one of those for a bit.

How low are you? I see that you have the adjusable control arms and such. Do you have the roll center correction ball joints?
