buck naked: Yes they are. The gt4 bar looked cool from front on but i don't have the side bits so it looked gay from the side. Didn't take any pics of the car with the gt4 bar on.
Aust162: My girlfriend and i made the box out of colourbond metal. Made a template with a slab box then cut out the metal. It cost me about $15 all up, less if i didn't buy so much metal... plus i accidently cut it out backwards so i had to spray paint the outside instead of it already being black!
Can you see the water injection? That's the latest addition, pretty mad i reckon.

Yeah that's it.
Well it wasn't a massive difference, only small i think. But the main reason for getting it wasn't for the power increase, it was to allow me to run higher boost. I'm trying to run about 13psi with the stock intercooler.
If you're gonna get one, get it off the USA ebay site, best deals by far.

Carefull turning that boost back up, it was pinging its little ass off on the dyno when you first put it on.
Crazymax told me you run more boost normally.
Dont turn the boost up any higher than you left the dyno with, or start saving for a new motor.

It was running about 13 and i turned it down to about 12 so nothing major. So you could hear it pinging?
And yes i haven't turned the boost back up yet.
After adding a boost controller and water injection it only runs at 1psi more than it did with no boost controller, so i can't see how it's being pushed very hard.

Well i just got a FMICso i thought id post up a few pics, it goes hard now!



BTW for those of you who are asking... yes my licence plate is held on with green whipper snipper line at the moment It'll get fixed up soon hopefully. Either it'll be moved to the side or i'll throw the gt4 bar back on.
Cheers.
