Everything is pretty much done underneath except for the rest of the exhaust to the back and the swap bar which hits on my crossover pipe. Not for sure whats going to go on there??

Yet to finish is the intake once it gets here and run the coolant hoses off the water pump, coolant tank, etc. Also need to figure out what size and configuration of air filter to put on. May need a couple of fuel rail fittings but still waiting to see what comes with the intake before I order those.

Did you figure something out on that coolant tank fitting or do we need to do something there?
I bought an AN style fitting but after looking it on there it takes up so much room it will be in the way when the air filter is on. Yes I need some ideas there.....

Not sure how I havent posted anything on your build yet but man, this is going to be wicked when its done!


Because im too lazy to read back, what turbine/housing are you running? That 91mm compressor is crazy! I feel there is only a handfull of people on here who are running something bigger.

Well like I said I can build you a custom fitting out of stainless if you want.

No real updates. Waiting on the Intake still. Probably will have something with the exhaust in the next week.
