kbracing96, that looks killer, and just like the setup I'm putting together right now.
Mine has 2 1/2" crossover and 3" log. I'm glad you got his up and running. It gives me confidence mine will work.

Kyle, good job man!

Chris, no coating? Not that it really matters here in AZ for rust... to keep the temps down around the manifold...

Nah...might be something to look at in the future, but I don't think I'll run into any problems with an uncoated manifold. I have the turbo blanket to cover up the compressor housing, but I never had any problems at all with the old manifold not being coated.
