Hyde's Engine's Final Round of Bling
This will be my last bit of engine dress up for a while.
I painted the heat shield red ~ hadn't had one on in 3 years. I also rewrapped the downpipe. You can see the opening for hte LM1 wideband cut into the heat shield. Newly powder coated is: RMR intake manifoldr, throttle body, throttle cable bracket, custom K&N filter adapter, turbo inlet pipe and the PCV pipe under my little K&N

Re: Hyde's Engine's Final Round of Bling
Thanks ... not sure which one you are refering to.
I have three K&N air filters. I have a huge one on my actual intake. I have one on the end of the PCV. And I have one on the OEM BPV valve. I was calling it me "K&N Triple Threat"

I've never seen that done before, especially on an mr2... what kind of hp gains or advantages did you notice after adding the 2 extra little K&Ns?
Interesting...

Re: Hyde's Engine's Final Round of Bling
The one on the PCV, does not directly add any real "power" ... it just stops dirty air from the engine from being circulated back into the intake.
The one on the BPV offers absolutely no benefit other than it allows the OEM to make the "cool BOV noise". You can ONLY do this mod if you have a VPC or EMS .... something that gets rid of the AFM.

Re: Hyde's Engine's Final Round of Bling
lol ... my engine bay is actually dirty as hell.
That all looks clean because it is all new powder coating, fresh spray paint, new hoses and new T-bolt clamps. Everything else is still very dirty

Re: Hyde's Engine's Final Round of Bling
I simply removed the parts and took them to a metal finisher that does the actual powder coating.

Re: Hyde's Engine's Final Round of Bling
It does not, but I imagine that is something you may be able to request.
