3" downpipe is from the Trick turbo stage 3 kit. All i did was weld a v band flange on it. Intercooler is also from Trick. 4" core only, no piping/brackets, he had a sale on a few units with inlet/outlet welded on the sides rather than the back. I made the mounting brackets and pieced together the pipes.

Slapped it together after a few test runs around the neighborhood. Put it on the road Friday. Blew an airline 1/2 mile from home, limped it back. Fixed airline, headed back out to do some data logging, drove 3 miles to work, pulled in and shut it down to update tune. 0 fuel pressure, won't start back up. I had a twist tie to jump fuel pump relay, pump runs, no fuel pressure. Ran good up until i shut it down, had to flat bed it home.

You can come over and put my gas tank back in for me. I've already dropped the tank 3 times today.

I put 15 gallons of 90 octane ethanol free in it Sunday. It softened the hose, Gates submersible, from pump to bulkhead fitting. My fault should've clamped it. It was such a bitch to get on i thought the hose barbs would hold. Put it all back together, no power to the pump now... rubber seals on fuel pump connector are shot now

So how is it riding around with all that power and bagged?
How does the suspension respond to the power?
