          I think a clear gurney flap would be awesome. Plus you'll be able to see out of the back window haha.

            Back window serves little purpose with turbo lsx.

                Finished up welding the flange on for good.
                Took the front end apart to test fit the manifold and everything fits just right.
                Now I can figure out the wastegate placement tomorrow.

                  QFT. Also mirrors are useless, they add drag, unless you like to watch things disappear.

                    Couldn't get the 409 stainless to weld half decent but whatever, the job is done and it's another step closer to finished. Finished the wastegate merge. Pushed it out to pull all the calipers off for my brother to powder coat. I'll post them after he's done, if you need anything powder coated let me know.

                            Don't need to see oit your back window when all you do is pass haul ass past people.

                              Finally put the manifold back in and mounted the wastegate and made a dump pipe.
                              At this point I could fire it up, but for some reason I'm in no rush.
                              Also got a crazy deal on a heater for the garage so life is beyond good.
