1)Bosch recirculator valve
1)4" intake pipe with enourmous cotton-gause filter (for C6 vette)
2)6mm oil drain bolts
1)6mm drill bit
1)braided oil feed line
2) 4" hoseclamps
1) Garrett turbine speed guage/datalogger kit (part #781328-001)
your choice of color in powdercoat on the intake and compressor housing
Posted free tune for those with HPT

BTF a few questions for a very intrigued buyer!

Will this system pass state emissions without a cat? It's not something I have to do for a while but it would be nice to know.

Since I already have the Westers tune would I need to send you my ECM, or could I just email you my tune and have you tweak it. I have access to HP Tuners to flash the ECM. I also have my stock and upgraded tune saved to my computer. Or could I just add your enhancements on top of my Westers tune? How would this work?

How difficult is the entire install. I know how to turn a wrench and have done most of the mods to my car myself in my driveway. Assuming average skill and speed how long should it take to install in a driveway? What, if any, special equipment is required for the install?

Do you have any pics of the whole thing laid out? It would help me understand exactly what is included.

Does the turbine speed datalogger come with a gauge (I assume not) or is it more used with data acquisition electronics for testing purposes?

AWESOME work and thank you for being a guinea pig in an effort to make our cars faster than they should be!
