alright it has been a while but got the engine and trans mocked up and finished building the crossover pipe. Its routed different then normal but it looks killer in person. I should be getting all the bends for the down pipe this week along with the muffler. Next week I will be ordering the intercooler and cold side piping. I plan to have everything done except for the fuel system by the end of the year.

Yeah the piping turned out a heck of a lot better than I thought it would. I plan on getting it flatblack jethot coated but hate to do it because bare stainless looks killer.

Too bad you fail at turbo choice. I bet at 400 whp that turbo will be beyond it's best efficiency range.

Obviously I'm joking. Awesome looking setup. Did you build the manifolds and piping?
