Where you there for the install of these trinkets? Did the front fascia have to come off to do the new IC? Or was it slipped in from underneath?

Sounds like the "full kit" is almost ready. No more solstice/sky jealousy

why hasn't anyone tried to insulate the pipes yet?? These pipes hug the eng and who knows how much heat is transfered .... If they are metal then maybe a trip for some jet hot coatings would help.... been considering this with the plastic pipes ( insulate ) to see if theres any change....but..might not be enuf to notice... anybody?

if you jet hot coat or any other coating or pain you will hold in heat.
This is one reason why plastic...not really plastic...gm used is because it doesn't get as hot as aluminum and disapates heat quicker.Why do you think all intake manifolds are made of the same material.

I'm refering to after the intercooler..... but..wrapping before the cooler maintains velocity..as the air cools it slows down...now this is mainly for those who want every last bit of power from their system..its not new..check out any race setup,they are all wrapped for efficiency
