I'm putting 225s and a barder 68 in my 06 f350. What do y'all think I should do? Polish the turbo? Or paint it? Including the intercooler tubes. The truck is white . With two tone tan. The intake elbow is already white from cfm. What do y'all like better polishing or painted?

I like both but mine is currently polished. If one pipe is already white, i'd do white. Just my .02

Yea the cfm elbow came white. But truck source said when white gets hot it turns yellow! But that cfm elbow I've had for years and it's fine. But it also doesn't get hot either. I think I'm just gunna end up getting it polished. My truck on the outside is white and chrome anyway. I don't have that murdered out look. I have chrome but not overly done chrome lol.
Thanks for your imput.

Yea man it's just the intake elbow that's white. Not the whole pipe the rest of the pipe is just steel color. So it might match perfect if I get the rest all polished. Then leave that little intake elbow white. The guys tsd uses this polisher guy and they only use him and smwear by him .

When polishing is done right, it looks beautiful IMO:

Who polished yours? Why isn't your cold side inter cooler tube not polished? Or is it? Is that a 6.4 or no? The plastic is from one but the hood latch should be near your bumper

Mines a 6.4, and the compressor housing I ordered polished. The pipe coming off of the turbo isn't because at the time the kit was made I was indecisive on what I was going to do. One day I'll have it polished. The rest of the plumbing No Limit fab and they polish it.

Can't see the grille either on the hood? Because it's attached right.

Ok yea sorry the pic didn't look like the grille was there. My brother has a 6.4 and the setup looks different. That's not a stock turbo right ?

Did you buy your cold air intake or make it? I wish mine was metal I could get it polished. My last Afe intake was but I changed to a s and b in close filter with the plastic tube.

Here's what it looks like with the polished intake horn. Sorry I'm in and out of service this weekend. Mike makes quality products, highly recommend it to anyone.
