So what is it? A rear mount or front mount? If it is a front mount post pics of the manifold and downpipe.

Every thread I read of yours has the same pattern. Idk if it's a fund issue or what but Maybe it's time to stop tinkering with cars/trucks and let somebody else do the work.

man you guys are horrible........out of all the forums I've used this one is the least helpful

not every one can drop big $$$ on go fast parts, I know a few guys that make some really good power for a lot less $$$ then guys who dropped $10k and got beat by the cheaper home built setup! happens all the time you all know that too

he asked "What is the max boost you see economical out of this turbo"

its probably a daily driver not a truck thats going to sit and wait for a sunny day so why spend a bunch of money on "pretty" parts that are going to be crappy looking in a year? this forum is suppose to help people not rip them a new A$$ hole

fine what he gots is not something you guys would use but it what he has

I guess this forum just holds a higher standard than your other forums. There is more to welding than making it look "pretty" like you mentioned in your post. If its done correctly, like most of us around here like to do things, then it won't be prone to leak or break, ever... And it will happen to look "pretty".

Not sure why anyone would purchase those hotpipes... You have to know they are going to be nothing but problems from the get go. Just do it correctly the first time and either build your own hotside, or buy some that will last.

I get what your saying but every one does not have to be so rude about it

a simple "i'd go with new pipe if you can" or "look them over good and fix any thing that looks weak" even "those might be a headache down the road"

that's what the other forums have over this one and its not higher standards when "most" just post RUDE comments! Like "Holy ****. WhyTF would you buy that?" I see your standards are pretty high!

this site has some really top notch builds and some that make me say WTF but hey its there work so I just respect that

Wrong. He has a 4 linked & air bagged, shortened & lightened race truck that he's been working on for 3 years. It used to be a nitrous fed monster, but he just sold his high compression 408 & is going with a stock longblock/turbo combination.

Custm is one of our special members, and he gets picked on sometimes for some of the things that he posts. But he takes it in stride & keeps coming back for more. He's a big boy, and he doesn't need you or anybody else to defend him. Thanks.
