Default Re: MK'S Limited *Updated 12/02 Part I of APS Install Completed, Stay Tuned For Part

Alright everyone I completed Part I of the Install For my upcomming tune Tuesday. I actually got quite a bit of stuff acomplished friday afternoon, and saturday.

Here is what I did:
-Install APS DR375 TMIC
-Install APS TMIC BOV
-Re-wire Defi Gauges through a different grommet in the fire wall, because before i had along splitloom harness that went from the left side of the firewall to the right, and now I re-wired it for the grommet right next to the pitch stop mount.
-Take Off my V-limited Lip for winter
-Change Out my regular floor mats for the subaru all-season ones.

Here Are some of the part pictures:

Prodrive 3-Port Boost Control Selenoid


APS 70MM Cold-Air Intake



APS DR375 TMIC





APS TMIC BOV




Here is the Silicone Elbow that come with the APS tmic, just to show you that it is very odd shaped, and if i would have bought the samco kit like i originally planned it would not have worked...





here is the process of painting the logo on the tmic...













Before & After Install:

Before:


After:







My Favorite New Tool:



All Coments Welcome!
Stay Tuned For Part II of the Install including a How-to Install 3-port Boost solenoid, Aps 70mm intake, and much much more. Also, watch for the upcomming tune #'s tuesday Night....

I'll stay tuned for the Prodrive install, I have the same one going in before my Protune, but I think I'll let P&L install it for me.

nice job painting the tmic. what kind of paint did you use? have fun dremeling out the fender hole for the 70mm. tune is on tuesday, you better get crackin' on installing those parts!

can't wait to see what kind of numbers you put down.

I used High Temp Engine Paint with ceramic, i couldn't find radiator paint in anything but silver. anyways, what do you mean dremeling a hole? the aps 70mm is made to fit without dremeling i thought....what kind of numbers do you expect i should make considering you've been tuned by jorge on that dyno?
