Full-detailed tuck/delete write-ups for NA's! - Page 30

Yetidragon · 06-05-2012, 04:10 AM

thanks for the comments guys

tucked rad? do you mean a smaller one pushed forward into the front bumper void? or one relocated to underneath the boot? or something different?

My front bumper void is pretty full already, with coolant over flow oil filter, oil cooler , inter cooler, horn, PA speaker... dunno if i could move the rad forward into it too. although its worth a look

under the boot floor is tempting as it will get rid of a lot of pipework at the front.

any where else i could put it?

I was thinking moved under the rad support into the bumper . I know i've seen some small ones that might fit other places but i don't think they would provide enough cooling for the motor.

You could looking into a water to air intercooler , they are made to hold some liquid so it could be used as a rad if it can handle the pressure .

bedheadben · 06-05-2012, 11:12 AM

Put it in the trunk, it's really not that hard.

Yetidragon · 06-05-2012, 11:37 AM

Yeah I'd seen his video before and thought it would be a cool place to put it

Aeffles · 06-06-2012, 07:07 AM

I hate looking at this thread. Only makes me feel like I'm so far from getting anything done -_-

Your car looks amazing. Seriously, so jealous.

Anyone figure out where to get firewall plugs for the fuse box hole? I know I saw it in here a while ago but Im not looking through 30 pages soooo if anyone knows a part number/ where to get it, it would be much appreciated

It's only 22 pages.

The thread search tool is also your friend.

Edit: Upon searching the thread quickly, I found a post by mighty mouse asking about fuse box plug holes and people discussing filling the stock one but no links to where an aftermarket plug could be found.

Weld it shut.

As of now

Any advice on how to re-route the following? I know you said trash can, should I just cap where the hoses connect to orrrr?
1#

2#

3#

ryanXstorey · 06-06-2012, 03:09 PM

Reroute it all the the trash can.

adamvanxxx · 06-06-2012, 04:13 PM

You're doing a tuck but you still have AC?

Timr · 06-06-2012, 05:36 PM

Trying to keep everything ha minus passenger side windshield wiper

Aeffles · 06-07-2012, 05:41 AM

I'm going to start doing my tuck once the weather starts to get better. I plan on keeping A/C which is probably stupid, but until I can learn to live with the heat, I still kick on the A/C from time to time.

Timr · 06-07-2012, 10:04 AM

It's a bit extra work and a couple more wires or sensors to stash but, honestly worth it for me. It can be so humid here...

adamvanxxx · 06-07-2012, 10:05 AM

You learn to livd with the heat by not having AC.

Timr · 06-07-2012, 10:08 AM

Yea just one of the luxury's I'm not willing to give up for two hard lines that can be polished, with two to four extra connecters that can be hidden, and a couple hoses that can stealthy be run.

If I ever obtain a nice DD I will be all for it but my DD has to have A/C...

ryanXstorey · 06-07-2012, 10:22 AM

I bet this guy reads GQ.

adamvanxxx · 06-07-2012, 01:16 PM

Weight and power BRO.

mighty mouse · 06-07-2012, 05:17 PM

That yellow car is awesome!

Last thing you need is a CF coilwire cover

Seriously, looking as good as it ever has.

You know you got your cops bracket facing the wrong way right .

nperkins · 08-08-2012, 08:40 AM

nope... Mounted it like that on purpose... I'm not going for the baller mega-tuck look... Its easier to swap plugs this way... I can pull the 3 valve cover bolts and pull the whole rack in one shot this way without loosening each coil.

adamvanxxx · 08-08-2012, 10:41 PM

Mine wif my new ish COPs.

LeVeL · 08-09-2012, 06:35 AM

Wow, very clean look there Adamvanxxx. I like how the heat shield just blends right into the valve cover.

nperkins · 08-09-2012, 07:02 AM

That's beautiful. I need to tuck more on my car...

adamvanxxx · 08-09-2012, 10:00 AM

I have to put in the MS sitting on my desk so I can get rid of that wack ass intake.
