Truck is a going to be a monster with the wick up.

Why did the dp use a slip fit joint? Once you clamp it down its effectively a 1 pc which could be a pita when time comes to remove

Yea man its a monster I'll have to post the same pic with the old turbo mounted up the difference is huge. Once it's all done I'll bring it by. As for the fab work I think all I need is the coilover brackets welded in and the cold pipe v band welded on to the charge pipe
