    1) ABD silicone intercooler hose - its bright red and looks neato burrito. didn't really notice any performance gains nor any sound gains, but it was free from ABD because of my baller status. Not too bad to install either, about 30 minutes because we couldnt get it on the intercooler, so we actually removed the intercooler, put on the pipe and then rebolted the intercooler. Would have been 10 minutes otherwise. $129 USD reg?

    2) ABD carbon fibre engine cover - looks supa dupa and fits just like stock. its a replacement piece rather than a stickon. Mold isn't 100% and there are soem imperfections but you cant tell when its actually installed. Doesnt come with the engine cover screws so you have to use your stock ones (which I am unfortunately short on). $199 USD reg.

    3) Kinetic Motorsports manual boost controller - install is a breeze, only pain is getting off the one-time-use-only clamps that are on the N75 valve stock. It bypasses the entire n75, but you should leave the N75 there anyway to plug the one electric port so you dont get a CEL, oh and plug the hole into the intake as well with a big screw. $49 USD

    My car only hit 15psi and held maybe 14psi in most gears. This seemed low to me and thats why I bought this MBC. I set it up so it hits and holds 17-18psi in all gears and feels amazing.

    4) ATP cold air intake - I bought it because it was chrome and cheap. It is both of those things and not much else. Its a standard CAI and looks pretty.

    5) ATP Turbo oil cap - its chrome and says TURBO on it. Thats about it. Doesnt come with a o-ring so you have to use your stock one. Leaks a tiny bit of oil it seems.
