Well I recently got my car back and have completed almost all my modifications for this summer.
PICTURES AT : http://www.angelfire.com/mi3/mattmarcinski...ki/tiburon.html
I still have to get my fog lights mounted and new rear wing installed.
I had the front of the CUDA kit redone to remove the license plate mounting area and logo area in the grill.
Had the side skirts molded
Intake cam installed
Full exhaust done...OBX Header to High flow cat to Flowmaster muffler to Custom dual exit (full stainless)
New seats and harnesses
All Comments welcome....I would post the pics here but an to lazy to figure out how.

looking DAMN good. your hatch area is sweet. engine bay is clean. body kit looks damn good....
isn't a dual exhaust on a 4 cyl tiburon kinda pointless and results in a power LOSS instead of an increase???
*tried posting the pictures, but angelfire apparently doesn't allow linking. all i got was their logo*

True you do get a loss of power inthe low in with dual exhaust due to the lowered back pressure......however i wanted the cuda tips to be hooked up to auctual exhaust and not just hung there for looks. Personal preferance I guess

Definately a preference of mine. I will have to do this on my Cuda kit soon. I would rather have it functional and take a loss now and make it back with TURBO!!!!! laugh.gif laugh.gif :mrgreen:
Seriously looks sweet. Did you do dual from the cat or just at the muffler. I plan on doing dual at the muffler.

nice kit.. that is one thing i wish i would have done to mine, taking off the front license plate mount that is.
You said ur sides are molded.. but all i see is the front part molded, not the rear part? Am i correct? i cant see in those pics too well.
I like the seats.
For the exhaust, why did u go dual from the header back? Why not just split it at the muffler?
Overall i like it.. good job

The tube that runs under the headers is on ALL betas.. it is a coolant line from the radiator to the water pump.
While the Cuda is not my favorite kit.. you did it good.. looking VERY nice.
