I have PIcs of the TTA up now, and TTA update

goto
http://www.geocities.com/feltsb/kyle.html

and click on tht TTA emblem to see what I started with.

I know also have the front clip and all GFX on and the interior all put back together and half way cleaned. When I get my code 42 worked out it will be running perfectly.
and then All I have to do is chase down the few parts I am missing and it will be finished.

Very smart decision.

Just like all Birds do on the passengers side, but on the Drivers side. My first Mod will be a Stainless Steel Pipe to the MAF and a K&N filter that sticks out into the Fender. Suposedy thats worth like 10hp and about .2 Sec in the 1/4.

I know why so much off you 1/4 time right. Well it improves spool up time on the turbo which means more power sooner!

Next weekend I hope to get pictures of the fromt end finshed and what not on the page!

How does it get to the fender?
Side extension or down straight?
Is there a link to a pic?
THANKS

Well refer to the pic on my webpage. The SS pipe will basically just replace the corregated pipe running to the thurbo from the MAF. The the K&N( I forget the Part Number but almost anyone on the TTA board can tell you what it is) is like 8"long and conical shape. This just goes straight off the MAF and out into the little opening in the Fender. This is the nice thing about an intercooler, You dont have to find Cold air outside of the car. It does it for you, though getting colder air can help.
