Had a guy message me about building a 4" down pipe for a S480 for his KB racing turbo kit. I told him no problem, just send me the manifold and crossover and I'd match everything up. Had no idea, this was going to be the very first turbo kit I ever built for my own personal truck back in 2007!! Just in case people don't think aluminzed coated tubing will last, other then some mild surface rusting, this stuff still looks great!! As far as I know, it's been in service its whole life too.



Oh, here is the link to my original build thread of this kit!

Collectors item! How many hands has it changed from you to the current owner?

 

I think at least 2 that I know of... A stroll down memory lane, that's for sure!! lol

 

That's pretty damn cool!

 

Thats mine. I keep the pipes wrapped and it has held up great!

 

Bet it hauls the mail in a hurry!

 

has anything changed with your kits from then to now? or did you nail it on the first shot..

 

Pretty much first shot. The same kits fits the 99-13. My current manifolds still come off the same jig. I didn't build the crossover and down pipe jig till later, but they are still the same to this day.

 

that's pretty cool! You should swap him a hotside and hang on to that one.

 

That's awesome!
