Thanks for the pic and vid, Josh. And I read that we're gonna have a rainless weekend here in OC. Hope your tech guys start the tuning tomorrow, LOL!

Is the intercooler connected? I don't see any water lines at the end of the new manifold.
This looks like an awesome package. Can't wait for performance data.

The intercooler is not connected just yet. Which is also why we have not released any information about boost and horsepower.

The intercooler is out being made right now and should be arriving any in about four or five days. Even though the intercooler is not hooked up we can still learn a lot about how the car's running. We're able to watch the belts, brackets, hoses and alignment on everything and make sure everything is happy. We're also able to begin working on our tuning a little bit and get us even closer so that when the intercooler does arrive we can wrap up the final touches.

Looks like an intersting set up. Can't wait to see the finished product. I hope the pressure side piping and manifold clears the strut bar on the and other components on the Z.

that has got to be one interesting intercooler core if it is a bar and plate with the in and out fittings on the same side. Must have welded separator bar down the middle of each layer and split the end tank. Unless it's a ghey tube style core.

I love the simplicity of the piping. I think I can see the single intake filter peeking out from behind that Stillen grille. From there it's a pretty short, straight path from the SC to the intake manifold. Also, from the vid, it looks like it's getting tested on an auto. Will be interesting to see how well it will take the extra power, since we already know the 6 speed handles it pretty well.
