I have a base Trick kit for sale sitting at his shop. I ordered the kit a few months ago but earlier this week my house was partially roasted in a wildfire so I need someone to take the order so i can get all my stuff straight.

i agree, they both have very niice kits, im just more of d.i.y kinda guy. and i figure with the knowledge and help of you guys, i think i can pull it off no problem. i have alot of friends that are amazing fabricators, and one of them is just itching to build a stainless manifold. so i thought wth, why not. lol

Looks pretty sweet! Only thing I see is that the truck is real low and the intercooler is probly gonna sit flush with the valence so if you scrap the valence that's your intercooler , not hating at all lol, my truck is the same way an I'm only lowered 4 inches up frog and I'm always paranoid were I go.

We're leaving Monday in the car to find a place to live, then once we do that it's back up here for the first of 2 loads with the Dmax and the enclosed trailer.

sweet, if you need any help, let me know. I live about 10 mins from the Woodlands. also, if you're looking for a place down here, a good website to use is HAR.com. you can narrow the search down to just the woodlands if you like.

on another note, what size primaries ( spell check) do you use on your manifolds? just trying to get an idea on how big to make them.

I am at 12psi with meth right now, and if you just stomp on it from a dead stop with out break stalling it, it just burns the tires after about 10-15 feet and lays them down for about 30-50 feet. And that is with awd.
So I would think that with stock compression with that mp t-76 with the .96 exhaust (same one I have) would do you great on the street. That turbo sounds awsome up above 10psi. And the spool time is great with the lq9.
