I plastidipped the Jeep emblem on the front and back as well as the SRT emblem on the back. All in red. It came out great. I started with 2 coats gun metal, then 1 coat white, then 2 coats red.

Ordered the Injen intake Wrinkle black and some REAL heat shielding with an adhesive back. I plan to insulate the actual heat shield from the motor.

Ordered a BT Catch can.

My plans are to stick the intake through the heat sheild in hopes of making a better seal and popping open the Normal Wk2 intake


adding a dry charger to the Injen filter for possible water. I doubt ill never have a need for it but Hey.

I put on my new philips head light bulbs last night. My hands look like I got into a fist fight with a rock wall. I have the fog lights ready to go but did not feel like screwing with them after the hour and half spent on head lights and bleeding hands lol.

thats some list! every single mod mentioned are on my next to do list (except the diablo until they release a 2014 tune) are you sending your TB's to be ported, or will you buy ready ones? and what size are you going? I'll keep an eye out for your posts :thumbsup:

Yeah, I've been building a wish list ever since I found this forum. I had a slow day at work yesterday, so after listening to you tube clips of the Borla, I went for it. And I thought, "well shit, I can't just put on an exhaust without tuning the ECM..." And then I thought, "well shit, if I have a tuner, I might as well get an intake." And so it goes.

I had a little email discourse with thefastman and he says that punching the throttle body out to 84mm and shaving the shaft down 3.5mm is just what these engines want. I'm sending my TB to him and praying it doesn't rain for a week as I'll be committed to my motorcycle until it gets back.

Anybody know a decent powder coater in the MetroWest MA area? Those Borlas are awful shiny.

Yes, that is what I was referring to gnasty. I've been eyeing it myself, just not sure if I want my DD any louder ;)
I think you would be happy with the Borla's. Normal driving with all the insulation in these Jeeps it's not loud inside. I haven't gotten to hear mine in person since adding the Kook's headers, but was told they didn't think it was loud enough. Even with the headers. LOL. I'm sure I'll be happy, along with my neighbors. My Merc is actually louder than the Jeep with the Borla ATAK.
