By far the finest part to ever come out of the 505 lab, the new V3 Billet Intake Manifold is the worthy successor to the original 505 Sheet Metal Intake Manifold. Over 2 years and thousands of dollars were spent reimagining and refining this piece from the ground up. The end result is a nearly...

I just hit 10 years on this forum. I bought my MSP December 6th 2002, it was one of the first black micas out of port from Cali. It still feels like a new car and still amazes me every time I drive it. Just hit 50k on it a few months ago. Can't believe it's been this long. Any other OG's still...

... Is scheduled to get here today. (rockon) Joe from Xcelerated Concepts made me a one-off reverse cowl hood, which features a double carbon underside and hi temp resin. As some of you know, my Wings West hood got absolutely murdered by heat around the passenger side vent area. Yellowing...

Just wanted to post up some pics since I was working on this over the past week. Hope it might help anyone that wants to do something similar to this. I fixed a couple issues that arose from the original way that I did the WGA bracket, and everything is super solid and proper now. We also...

I hadn't done much work on the paint over the last couple years, and it was starting to show. I was keeping up on the washes, but I was only putting on a single coat of Z2 every 6 months or so for maintenance. Gave her some love today, and so far she's cleaning up better than I was expecting...

Welcome to 505's library. Here you will find the threads that I always end up linking people to in PM's, along with some others. I plan for the "extras section" to grow big with a lot of good threads, but I am starting with just my own stuff for now. The layout will also change as stuff is...

Alright some of you know that my car was garaged for a year until last september, and I never got around to giving it a full detailing over the winter. It was a balmy 70 degrees here today, so I decided it was time to clean it up proper style. Started with a zaino wash, and dryed with my...

Ok I finally got over this flu and got a chance to get the car the rest of the way back together today. Double checked everything, put the front bumper back on, and took it for it's first spin with the new pipes. Off boost throttle response is much improved over the old setup. No idle issues or...

I start off today with my newly decked/sanded/polished exhaust manifold. I bolt it up to the turbo/downpipe assembly with nice fresh stainless hardware and gaskets, everything is starting off great. For anyone who doesn't know, this is supposed to be the tail end of my new intercooler piping...
