So I have not even touched my car in a month, and I finally brought it out to wash it, and figured I would take a few quick pictures.

As well as post pics of the SMIM I installed but never posted, and got reminded by another post.

I love the SMIM in there, I ordered the bracket and was not entirely impressed with it, but it serves its function and that's ok with me.

Noticeable gains with the SMIM?

You know, not really that I could tell no. But I put it in, then drove to Oregon, where it was hot as crap. I also put a Heat Barrier in, I am sure its doing something, just not too noticeable.

But I did seem to get the outcome I was really going for, which was a little support up top for the T28, because its such a small turbo it drops off up top, even with a larger wastgate/actuator. But when I put this in, it seems to hold 22 lbs pretty consistantly.

Thanks Dom, still waiting for that month I can enter ROM (and get that $20 from you :D), but man, it's been so tough with all the nice cars we have on this forum, I know I am going to have my work cut out for me.

And with these crummy cell phone pics, they will just never do it the justice that there is seeing it in person.

Damn that thing is sexy. I love the look of the Evo IX wheels. Do you have the Evo brakes?

Yeah, Evo brakes on there. At first I was not a huge fan of the wheels, but they have definitely grown on me.

I just have not done anything with the car, so it has sat in the garage since I got back from Oregon.

Probably should wax it one of these days, but procrastination is easier.

That SMIM is super overkill for the T-28. You won't notice much difference if at all. Looks good nonetheless

Yupp, I know. Like I said though, the reason for it, is I was going to need one. I saved some money on this one, and the T28 needed some help up top.
