Hmmm... 4", huh? Will it be as pretty as my HKS?

I hope it works out for you, but if you run into issues with the tunability of this setup, I would recommend finding a way to straighten those MAF tubes. ECU/MAF can be picky sometimes.

Aside from that the construction looks top notch.

Engine bay is done!















Have to mate the downpipe to the exhaust and finish up the gauges tomorrow and she's done!

Looks flat out amazing! I am just wondering how yall are going to manage the dump pipes in the front. Are yall going to fab up a custom under carriage for the dump to let out its gases? I think the tuning is going to be a fun time, but Im sure it will be for the best and we will see some power!

Impressive build. My only concern is the placement of the turbo that close to the radiator and what appears to be a plastic shroud and such. Either way, looking forward to seeing some tuning results.

all of this is exciting! amazing fab work, but like everyone else id be concerned with the hot side of the turbo behind the radiator and up against the front of the engine. can both items take prolonged heat with no adverse effect?

I'm not worried about the heat. I'm going to pick up the stock parts that came off the car today and will be putting a turbo blanket on. I'm more worried about the tuning...we shall see. 4pm Thursday is my D-day.

If all goes well I should be starting my car for the first time about that time on Thursday.

Good luck.
