DVDee 05-05-2008, 10:54 PM Just installed the Nisei 1 pc matte black UIP. I love it, it looks so stock. Here are some pictures.

RpmSteve 05-05-2008, 11:00 PM WOW, very very nice. I love the stock look
dcasandman 05-05-2008, 11:53 PM I wonder if most techs at dealerships would even notice.

on2it 05-06-2008, 04:49 AM beautiful.. exactly what I would have done.
DVDee 05-06-2008, 01:49 PM I wonder if most techs at dealerships would even notice.
I have the feeling they won't, atleast not for a while.
Robotix Junior 05-06-2008, 01:50 PM I'm liking it mate, well done!
Thuan 05-06-2008, 02:06 PM Is this fully release? Can you get it polished or just in black?
how much does this cost. I was going to get the AMS, but after seeing this one
it looks so much cleaner as a 1 peice
Kooldino 05-06-2008, 02:08 PM Clean! Does it use the stock black elbow that comes off of the turbo?
Do you feel any power difference?
Robotix Junior 05-06-2008, 02:12 PM I'd imagine you would mate
Unowned 05-06-2008, 02:43 PM Most of the power to be felt is less lag and consistancy of boost pressure due to less "ballooning" of the IC rubber hoses replaced
MooseX 05-06-2008, 02:52 PM uhh..My dealer's tech would notice it for sure. 2 of them have modded evos...lots of mods. Why risk it. Pull your mods.
I do love this black color. I've got the Buscher Upper'/lower pipes and will probably powdercoat it just like it. I'm not a big undedrhood bling guy for the simple reason if I happen to get my hood popped by someone with a badge
DVDee 05-06-2008, 06:19 PM Clean! Does it use the stock black elbow that comes off of the turbo?

It uses the same black elbow. I'll let you know about the power difference today I haven't drove the car since.
MooseX 05-06-2008, 06:22 PM cool. I'd have gotten black too but Buscher doesn't offer it

You've had a cop look under your hood??? What were they looking for, contraband?
MooseX 05-07-2008, 01:09 AM I personally haven't been popped...I know people who have though. The cops were looking for mods. It's a CA tradition for law enforcment in certain areas ie the Sac' Valley
DVDee 05-07-2008, 05:04 AM Dino, the car does pull harder I wouldn't be able to give an HP estimate but it's an improvement. Also you can now hear the turbo spool up when the windows are down which is a +.
Robotix Junior 05-07-2008, 08:07 AM Nice! The cops down here in Brighton are dropping Cossie's into their estate wagons to try to give them an edge over street racers.
DaemonSadi 05-08-2008, 04:05 AM Nice man! I have one of those in the same color sitting in my closet right now! lol
dcasandman 05-08-2008, 04:19 AM Where did you get these. You cant buy from web site yet. Are these still in testing??
DaemonSadi 05-08-2008, 04:45 AM They were doing a limited time first shipment sale in their forums for $199... not sure if they have any of those ones left, but if you email their sales department they are probably selling them now.

Robotix Junior 05-08-2008, 01:07 PM Very nice!
DirectorSe7en 05-12-2008, 07:16 AM Very nice. Definitely OEM looking.
Robotix Junior 05-12-2008, 08:22 AM I agree, but will the dealers relise it is custom?
chopshop 05-12-2008, 08:41 AM man that look sick
mitsugst4eva 05-20-2008, 08:18 AM very clean!
I agree; very clean! Looks good if you want to keep a nice but stock look. Guess plastic hasn't grown on me yet and I'm still feeling the polished look. Either way, I embrace more options!
DVDee 05-20-2008, 04:09 PM What do you mean by plastic?

Not plastic, just painted matte black. It comes in the matte black you see there, regular black, polished, and red.
B1GHAM 05-20-2008, 04:51 PM The pipes look great, but Im torn between leaving them polished or powdercoating.
Polished does have the nicer look - but I also enjoy the "sleeper" effect of stock looking parts.
Do you atleast have a boost guage to see how pressure was effected through the RPM range? Id be curious to see if/how much boost is adjusted just by replacing the piping.
EvoXRacer 05-20-2008, 06:56 PM I want the black matte but they are on back order :(
Robotix Junior 05-22-2008, 02:55 PM I am thinking of powdercoating them gold just for the bling factor. JOKES!

I need to find a place where the gauge looks stock. Until then I'll just do the standard mods and wait until I find a good place to mount the boost gauge.

Hopefully I'll have my stuff set up soon and I can answer that for you.
on2it 05-23-2008, 05:35 AM matt black gets my vote.
