Yeah, I just couldn't figure out a way to work in the one member who claimed that adding a valance to his lightbulb kept it from overheating...

Pictures of my Air Filter attached to my turbo


Rerouting of Heater Hoses

I had to remove the parking and turn signal relay box.  I actually cut the box apart keeping the relays intact and tucking them down in the corner below the ECM.

The mounting of the new coolant bottle, I used a windshield washer fluid bottle from a 90 Grand Prix.  It mounts to the plastic cover and tucks very neatly into the space between the ECM and the Engine fuse box.

Yours looks good, but I don't wanna start cutting stuff up. This tank just bolts on.

yours is definetly bigger, and the nice thing about yours is that it takes the place of the cover, and you can always see how much antifreeze you have, I like mine cuz its hidden.  I have a tendency of doing things my own way, I'm stubborn like that.  My TGP will be one of a kind. :icon_mrgreen:

EDIT: what vehicle had that kind of coolant bottle

EDIT: what vehicle had that kind of coolant bottle

91-93 Grand Prix's have that coolant bottle as stock equipment. The other W-body cars from those years may have that bottle as well, it's been a while since I've seen a 91-93 Cutty, Lumina, etc. engine bay though, so I could be mistaken.

A picture from my '93 SE w/ that coolant bottle...


Of course Matt's brand new bottle looks better than mine with 253,000 miles worth of heat and crap on it that have discolored it. :lol:

I can appreciate the fact that you want to be one of a kind. Either way it gets the job done, and is better than stock IMO

It's quite possible that I did get the idea from you, but I honestly don't remember for sure.

ok you guys are confusing the hell out of me. I'm going down to Autozone which K & N filter do I tell them I need that I can bring home bolt on close the hood and drive and not have to do any modifying also what filter do I need for the valve cover.
