FINALLY got my ETS piping done...

So I bought my ETS UICP/LICP and mini battery kit way back when ETS first became a vendor on the forum. I bought my piping uncoated since I planned on getting it done myself. Well a week ago I finally got off my *** and took the above parts and my Buschur MAF pipe in for powdercoating. The results made my pee-pee move.

Anyways, here's the pics...

Before (day of install):





And after:











I'll be posting more pics up on Thursday since my ETS 3.5" wide-tank intercooler comes in (I owe you big Tom!).

He is still on the stock MAF, but is using a Tial VTA BOV so no recirc capability

I see your not recirculating, just like Tom said...how is car you running like that? Stalling at all, dropping real low in the rpms when your coming to a stop?

My car is running fine. It's a bit richer in between shifts but I've never had a stalling issue. You can hear the exhaust popping a hell of a lot more also. ~75% throttle has issues with the BOV opening and closing rapidly, so I just stay away from ~75% throttle. I had that issue with my last VTA BOV (Turbonetics Raptor) and everyone I know has had that problem with their VTAs.

I'm not too worried about the throttle issue YET, but when I get back to the mainland, I need to solve it so I can track my car with no worries.

Thanks for all the compliments.

Im running the Tial VTA with stock maf. I have the exact problems you describe. Once my maf translator gets here it should fix all my issues!!

Thanks all.

Well, I just picked up my intercooler. Let's just say I fapped.

Will post pics when I get home from work and install it.
