No wonder you're going such a massive power upgrade. Look at all the cabling and sound equipment your poor FTO has to drag around 8O :lol:

This is a seriously mean build. Can't wait to hear it with the screamer pipe installed, especially on a turbo that big 8)

Nice!

Can you drive through the outskirts of the Western suburbs when you're done and suck up all the bratty kids with that turbo?

Close fit on that manifold meanwhile.
Have you gone for a blow through setup with the fans?
