hmm quite nice. Wasnt expecting a turbo, you should get a Dr. Evil tranny to hold the power cuz we all know the stock tranny is glass. good luck at NOPI

NOPIGUY

We will be switching to a 6spd after the NOPI Nationals.

Lord Helmet

Turbo =

Not sure if I like the wheels like that though. I think they'd look better with a machined lip like the face.

EDIT: Do I see a supercharged Cobalt SS in that garage?

.....turbo = crazy s-o-b

looks crazy, let me know when you get bthe kit on. and you should shoot the wgeels with those badges and mini emblems I sent you, the vinyl decal would look awesome on the lip too. you got those, right?

mattg

nice

NOPIGUY

Yes that is a Cobalt SS in the garage. It has a roll bar, underdrive pulley and upgrade pulley, and a twin disc Exedy clutch.


Yea, the car looks good with the pieces on the wheels, I will get you pics from Knoxville, TN show where I had everything on them. Pulled the pieces off since you told me about the tape not being the greatest. The body shop will do the permanent mount before they finish the car.

Mahdavi Motorsports will be making the kits.

abouelmm

sweet, i didnt expect that at all, some serious nice work but man im sorry to say this but those rims are not the greatest, they they look like they have no lip at all in the pics or it just looks like that cuz of the black lip, but other than that i think that would make a great sleeper if thats what your shooting for

Stealth CL

yeah sweet work, but i dont like the black in the rims, the black lip really takes the affect of the lip away. it would look 100times better with that lip noticable....yet sweet job

cltypeSLOW

needs more slammage, and better pics!

Lord Helmet

ACCURATEin

Damn! a turbo.

Where is your CL gonna be parked at Nopi? I'm gonna come look at it, are you gonna be sitting near it cause i wanna hear what it sounds like.

I'll be there with my 3rd gen TL.

Honestly, i don't think he's going for that bling look with a polishged lip, more of a unique show car with a performance style, hence the blacked out with highlight wheels. and the lip isn't a huge factor when every beemer and benz in the Nopi show has a 4+" lip, so he went the other direction instead of competing with low offset vehicles. But def slam that bish with the kit and new paint, and I would def put the pics on the site. send them asap!

not digging the wheels but everything else. nice

Techniques

looks like that van drove through the house

All Mine

Interesting.... Why them though? Their specialties are in Toyota/Lexus and 4banger Honders.

NOPIGUY

Thanks Ron, you said it all there. Definately not going for the bling look with this car. The car will be in the RonJon booth at the NOPI Nationals. At some point in time I will be there, but not all the time, I do have a show to run that weekend. haha


Why Mahdavi? Because Sam is sick when it comes to building turbo kits that no one else really fools with. He has done Lexus GS 300 and 400 kits, Mustang Cobra twin turbo kits, and now the Acura CL kit.
Also, only 4 days to fab everything up completely, all parts are now at the powder coater.

Who would you suggest?

Stealth CL

oh yeah...mud flaps FTL

bulldawg

You live off HWY 92 don't you, in that new subdivision Mountain Brook or something right? Where the firestation is, in cherokee???

cltypeSLOW

why the fuck would you post someones personal info like that on a public board. use PMs noob.

turbo kit looks great man. make a new thread when its finished with prices for us to get it done etc/

4pumpedCL

Those people building the house in the background are slobs! Oh...nice car.

TRU..... Was going to saay the same thing. Are Fuckin Trannys are SHIT!!

NOPIGUY

Actually, he is not giving out any info. The car actually stays in our warehouse near the airport, and I live near Buford, on the opposite side of town from where he is talking about. No where near Crachworth.

Thanks for the input guys, I will post more pics this afternoon of the I/C and piping.

bulldawg

Haha, NOOB? I've been on this forum since Aug 2004. You joined in October 2004. Do the math....

Why is it that people get think they are so Tough and get so Authoritarian behind a computer screen?

bulldawg

Props on your car man, and my bad anyways.

NOPIGUY

Thanks and no problem. Cars are meant to be seen and not hidden, you just have not seen it as of yet.

03silvertypeS

definitely looks good, not so sure how i feel about the black in the RJs, but i'm sure it looks Great in person. I'm defintiely looking forward to seein more pics of that turbo!!

NOPIGUY

Here are the I/C and piping pics.







The I/C is a custom 4 row Spearco pieces with inlet and outlet on one side. The piping is 2.50" on the hotside, 2.75" on the cold side. The downpipe is 3.00".

Everything has been sent to the Powder Coater and the Ceramic Coater. Car is now at the body shop. Should get some pics of that soon.

ACCURATEin

Tell them to make a kit for the 3rd gen TL.

Lookin forward to seeing the engine bay in person in ATL.

TCM 01 CL-S

That car is going to be wicked when its done. Can't wait till hear more about the turbo kit. Keep up the good work.

njzprettyboy

sweet, what color are you paiting the car ?

rondog

iTrader: (1)

Yeah, we got this car and another CL which will be in our booth at NOPI in ATL, can't wait, we're setting it up soon. Make sure to come by, we'll have our new catalogs there and some other cool stuff.

NOPIGUY

The guys at Mahdavi already looked at the wifes TL. Probably won't see a turbo kit for that car, no room and goofy manifold set-up on it.

The car is going back SSM w/BASF Blue Pearl mica.

Also, I just heard from Joe at UniChip, the new module will be here this week.

ACCURATEin

That's unfortunate, thanks for the info though!

NOPIGUY

They are going to do a little more research into the TL for you guys.
