          I've been watching this go down on instagram and FB, finally had the pleasure of coming across the actual build thread.

          this thing is truly awesome, insane, and I cant wait to see it go.

          I know you're more than likely planning on painting it, but you should totally keep it two tone for a while it looks killer! :P

            Thanks Otis, if I'm ever down your way or you're up here you're welcome to hop in for a ride. Your car is probably faster though haha

            And thanks everyone for the love towards the build!

                Thanks, got to making the 4" downpipe today. Managed to make it clear everything even with the tall valve covers.

                    Is your turbocharger bolted down in this picture? Insane clearance, good work.
                    I recommend a heatblanket. It brought my average temps down via megasquirt monitoring.

                      Hope it's enough ;)
                      If the roof creased from my hood and 4 tires I would be amazed and disappointed.

                      Yes it's bolted to a flange that's bolted to the head. My brother has just started powder coating so I'm going to have him chrome ceramic coat the exhaust housing and down pipe. If it's still too hot I'll get a treadstone blanket and dei wrap for the downpipe.

                                Thanks guys!

                                Finished up the intercooler piping for the passenger side.
                                Now I need to finish up the crossover and mount the big ass wastegate.
