Looks good. Just becareful on bumps and check every so offten to see if that filter isn't getting knocked off. Got any sounds clips??
man, i'd be worried about driving in rain and puddles of water with the filter that low and exposed....
s/c and intake tubing look great tho, i'm quite jealous
i bet it sounds crazy
titus03 - Yea ill try to get some sound clips today. bumps should be fine as my front bumper is lower...and yea ill check to make sure its on there... i did it up as tight as i could so hopfully its good
xOPETHx - Well i ask a few of my dads buddies about it... and they told me i would basically need to have my filter in a bucket of water and rev it to get hydro lock... but i thought it didnt take much... so i hope they are right... cuz i dont have much room to bring it up...:S
I've had mine on for just over a year (about 5,000 miles) and haven't had any problems...
Looks good, so does that header too
One thing you might want to consider is a K&N precharger, They sell them in made to order sizes and are basically a selectively permeable outerwrap that doesnt allow water droplets to pass, it extens the life of your filter before service interval by at least 50% and stops water from collecting in your intake,
Just a thought.
SC looks awesome though, how many PSI with the new pulley?
well like some one just told me... there isn't enough suction to pull the water straight up... he said his intake would be soaking wet and he took the part that went into his throttle body off and no water made it up there... just not enough to pull water straight up...
humm well i only get about 5-5.5psi now :S but some one said boost gauges aren't all the same accuracy (some peoples gauges show from 5psi-8.5psi with the 2.7" pulley thats on there now)... it pulls very hard now though.. and i have smaller pulleys here that take like 5 min to put on.. i just need to get my alcohol injection in.
My friends eclipse got hydrolocked from a filter at the bottom like that. And he was NA, no FI. Had to drop alot of money into a new engine.
New sig in the works
^^ Same thing happened to my friends del sol the other night...it rained like hell here and he drove home after the rain and hydrolocked his motor right up......drove right through a big puddle.....
BTW Freebs its looking very good.....I am ordering my pulley and alky injection kit right now so i'll get to show off my stuff like u
.... what size pulleys did you get??
Car is for Sale!Supercharger kit is for sale!
qiuck fix... go to autozone look in the APC stuff( yes i know i know) and give dust cover for like 20 bucks. just a suggestions

I want a sound clip cause this is the same thing I want to do...
Looks really good, Freebs. Don't forget the sound clip when you have it.
And a question, where do you buy your 2.7" pulley? any link?
Regards,

MAKING MY DREAMS A REALITY
Visit my cardomain site !!!
ELIOT. Now.....boosted.
ok for all looking for the new pulleys... if you wait a bit pulley boys may be making pulleys for the M-45 supercharger... right now i have the 2.7" and 2.6" pulley from them and its for the M90 (GTP's) and its a bit big and pulley boys has mine and they are looking at it right now to see if they are going to make them for us.
P.S sound clip should be up tonight... dont know how well it will work since its being taken from my digital camera but yea
Water = bad!
Bumps = BAD!
Small objects = bad also!
No filter = oh man!
yeah like white cavy said, i had a civic buddy hit a deep pulle and hydolocked, threw a rod, busted though the block, no bueno, had to put in a whole new engine, why have it go down, it cant make that big of a difference than having it go right by your block and its a helluva lot safer
that filter makes me nervous just looking at it
ahaha i know the pics make it look soo low from what it actually is... but tomorrow its going up about 1.5-2inches and getting a K&N filter bag to protect against water and rocks (thats what they says its for any way)
oh and if some one can host or tell me how to get the video i have with sound of the s/c let me know and ill post them up or send them to you
Where'd you get the charger and what kind of header is that? Bad @$$!!!!!
NEW SIG COMING SOON FOR 07'!!!
charger = Pace performance
header = Gravana tuning a.k.a RK sport 4-2-1 (some people hate it others like it) i found i got good gains through out the entire RPM range with it after i got the exhaust on as well...
my friend ha his filter inside the fender where the bong is , and he hydro locked his 01 2.4 quicker than quick , and it scattered the rods out side of the block , he was missing parts he couldnt find
just remember its there and when its raining to unhook it , and run it wai style
looks cool
i had my filter like that with mt 2.3 ho intake , and i smashed the hell outta the filter
yep its going up tomorrow.. kind of tucked up so that even if i hit a nice big bump there is now way it will hit the filter...
dont tuck it up to high , or it will only get the air off the radiator , id put a 90 at the bottom and run it inside the bumper
ahah well the thing is.. it was a nice 90 degree bent tube (from my buddys 2.4L intercooler set up) but the way we wwre going to have it the 90 degree didnt work so we cut it to try and fit it and it still didnt work.. and then we turned it around and the 90 would have worked but yea ahah
