Please stop by the Hillbank display and meet the awesome team at Hillbank that has helped SC_Ruby become what it is. Looking forward to seeing some awesome cars and meeting new friends :thumbsup:

A Few New Mods

Just had my taillights painted and clear-coated for a smoked out look:


Also installed the Steeda Assist Clutch Spring and what a difference it made, especially with the McLeod RXT clutch :cheers: I'll be posting a few pics soon on the custom Ram Air system to accommodate the Whipple SC that Hillbank Motorsports did for my Trucarbon Ram Air Hood.

Ram Air System

With my Trufiber Ram Air Hood Hillbank did a custom job so that its a true Ram Air system. First mock up to see if it would work and to make sure it didn't mess with the Whipple tune. So far so good. Looking at a few modifications to clean it up some. Seeing if we can move the rubber piece currently on the air box onto the hood section where it dumps the air out, then put the new and soon to be available CF Airbox cover on with the hole cut out and some form of mesh on top. Think it would clean it up some :shrug: [MENTION=13288]Whipple SC[/MENTION] Dustin what do you think? So far has not caused any issue with drive ability or smoothness. I think because the air box bottom is open it's just dumping te cool air over the intake and not messing with the MAF :shrug:

Air Box Section that sits up against hood section where the Ram Air hood channels the air:


Just a cool shoot of the Whipple reflection off inside of the hood

[MENTION=19428]dbasql[/MENTION] I did not. These are their test set so I just used what they put on. I think it will depend on what center cap you will be using. If your using the stock ones with the silver pony I think the chrome ones look good. I also thing black or colored lug nuts that match your car would also look awesome.

[MENTION=16215]SC_Ruby[/MENTION] your build is immaculate. I've been following it for a while now and it has given me some goals to achieve with mine. I bought my PP GT this very day last April(Happy Birthday to my Phantom5OH lol). My S2 Whipple kit is on the way! I have the Velossa ram air inlet that I plan on utilizing with the Whipple Air box but I love that hood and your custom cutting. It should work phenomenal I would think and not be too turbulent for the MAF readings. I've always been a firm believer in getting the coolest air in on boosted setups!

[MENTION=15300]The Game[/MENTION] Thank you very much for your kind words and happy D-Day to your car. The Whipple S2 Kit is the perfect B-Day gift :cheers: So far I have no adverse reactions from the cold air coming in so I'm pleased to be able to use this function of the hood as it was not the reason for buying it but a welcomed bonus. Your going to have a whole new car with the Whipple:thumbsup: looking forward to your reviews once installed. Thanks again!
