Pics of powdercoat valve cover and ingalls ETD added to the bay
Finally decided to powdercoat my valve cover metallic sky blue and install the Ingalls ETD, the ETD is the shit pair with the Mugen quick shifter their no more sluggish shifting it is precise, quick and very solid but I did notice a slight vibration in the cabin though. As seen in the pics I also phile a piece of the Cusco to clear the upper portion of the AC line and when you look closely at the Ingalls chasis bracket also phile a piece of the bracket to clear the lower AC line, you must do this if only you have the Cusco STB. With the ETD I use my own zince plated bolt and use a quarter inch aluminum spacer to the engine bracket to make the ETD parallel to the valve cover and I didn't use the supply bolt and it matches the ingalls bracket better.

Stupid question, what is the small blue box(looks like a small amp almost) over the battery? Ive seen this on other cars but have never known what its function is.
Sorry didnt want to hijack the thread, but thought starting a new one would be pointless.

The T1R V-Power Voltage Stabilizer regulates the voltage of the car's electrical system, providing constant voltage at all times. Normally the electrical system's voltage will fluctuate under acceleration resulting in power loss and rough power delivery. The Voltage Stabilizer eliminates this voltage fluctuation, providing a constant voltage, thereby smoothening power delivery and optimizing power. Low rpm performance is improved noticeably, with improved response, acceleration, and smoothness. Fuel economy is also improved, especially for city driving condition.

I haven't messed around with it yet.

I'm just being a pain lol

Does the Voltage Stabilizer have to work with another mod, or is it something you can get by itself? I understand what it does - was surprised by your comment that it improved fuel economy.

I know it all performs well, but it looks amazing too.
