I had a local shop do the exhaust. I have done everything else except the engine build work and a few of us got together in Vegas to do the transmission build up with a friend.

I just got back from running it real hard. I have been messing with all the transmission setting to get them dialed in after all the transmission modifications and this thing is out of control. It comes out of the hole and from a roll like a "Monster on Steroids". The exhaust tone is perfect and it literally scares people next to me when I get on it. I have had so many people just stare in disbelief/amazement!!!

I plan on it buddy. This thing is running way better then the SSR ever did so far. I cannt beleive how strong it is right now. I havent even bumped it to 8 PSI of Boost yet. I am running between 6-7 PSI of boost right now after all the modifications.

Why did you go with the 1 7/8 headers and not the 1 3/4? I know that they'll move more air but I've read that if you go too big on the primary tubes that you lose on the bottom and get more on top.

The end goal is 650-700 RWHP so everything will have to support that in the end. The 1 7/8" Headers on the MagnaCharged LS2 Engines perform flawlessly, the 1 3/4" will typically not see any improvement at all. I am sure I didnt loose anything on the bottom that a pulley cannt make up.

I am running between 8-8.5 PSI of Boost and this thing loves it. I cannt wait to start on the next round of modifications with the heads, cam and more.
