Nope, had the original ones painted K23 to match the car. I will be getting the intake pipes powder coated dark grey/silver for contrast.

In other news. TiAL is completely useless for customer support/service. I was able to get some help from Tony at Treadstone with my BOV spring issue. He confirmed that I should be using the yellow springs in the BOVs (11psi). He has them in stock and hopefully will be shipping them out soon.

New project? Under 100,000 kms, looks beat and the dealer wants waaaaaay too much money for it.

What sort of issues are you having with your BOVs? Are you running 2 seperate vac sources for them or just a single one T'ing off?

I'm using a single vacuum source and T'ing off to both BOVs. The issue I have is the BOVs will open at idle, then the car will lean out. Sometimes it will stall and throw a code (I can't remember the code) if I don't give it a gentle shot of gas.

J/K. I would buy a 911 if I was going to spend that kind of money.

Seats were supposed to arrive at the US distributor on Monday. Yesterday I messaged my contact for an update, still waiting for a response. No news is good news, right?

Also have a custom steering wheel being fabricated for me. It should look sweet.

The car is up on jack stands, hopefully I can find time to rip out the oil lines and re-plumb everything this weekend.

The one you showed me. I hope it works out. Their communication isn't the best, they must be really busy.

that's one of the reasons I haven't pulled the trigger yet... im looking forward to seeing what you get and how you feel about the product. What kind of lead time did they give you? Did you get a good deal? Feel free to FB message me if that's easier.

They haven't given a lead time... and the price isn't as good as they quoted you. I'll message you.

Wasn't that like $1k? That'd be the last thing I'd spend that much money on. Did you think about doing it yourself?
