hey.
haven't had time to update this since school this semester is kicking my ass but here are some updates..
corksport sri was installed 2 weeks ago. sounds good, such a different sound coming from the skyactiv compared to my old motor. also, the stock intake on these things are wild haha, so damn tall.
put some yellow high beam/DRL bulbs in the same day also.
okay now to the good stuff..
wish i had bought my camera to my friends garage but unfortunately i forgot so i couldnt really post pictures of the process, but my trunk set up is complete.
originally i bought 4 way manual management but i have recently decided i didnt want to go that route and go with analog so i bought my friends valves and switchbox and it also made for an easier install.
both me and my good friend, Zach worked on my car from 9pm until legit 6am in the morning on this and everything was done by us.
we first took out the spare tire and cut a piece of wood into a circle so that it fit perfectly.
we mounted the compressor on its side so that it would fit under the carpet and everything under there is golden.
i was originally going to have the tank all the way at the back of the trunk but since the 6's trunk is awesome and i wanted to keep the functional aspect of it and still have it look as oem and clean as possible we decided to mount the tank on the top of the trunk.
also, we decided it would be fun to run hardlines instead of the boring ones they give you, and since my friends garage is also his workplace and his work just so happens to sell stainless aluminum hard lines and just about every single kind of fitting there are on the planet so we went at it.
heres the final outcome.
also, took off the rear emblems whilst i was at it.
put my down deposit down on the struts and bags/just waiting on my tax refund check to come in so i can pay the rest and then the lowz will come.
until then, we play the waiting game.
