Jake, whose built your DP's? Also got any better pics of the piping from the log to the Turbo Flange? The angle of the wastegate merge into the DP is pretty ****. Whoever's building it seems to know what he's doing.
MOAR PICS of the hot parts!

I'll get a more comprehensive set of pictures tonight. I have to disassemble it all, put gaskets on everything, wrap downpipes (unfortunately, I know..), and take care of a few other odds and ends. The tig work was done by a guy here locally. He's just an automotive fabrication fanatic and enjoys what he does, so it turns out really well. The price on the labor was very reasonable, borderline cheap...I think he regrets quoting the job as low as he did 
I gave him a $100 tip though. Additionally, I assured him he would be more than compensated for his efforts by the amount of people that will see this truck and then come asking him for similar work.
The guy did sort of misunderstand what I was looking for when he did the tailpipes. But this is how it turned out....
Not exactly what I was going for, but I think it might grow on me. Opinions? Leave it or change it?

Just what I mentioned here. Wasn't what I was looking for, but it might grow on me. Realistically, I'd probably just end up too lazy to change it lol. I'm pretty easy to please in the aesthetics department, as long as it doesn't look retarded.
