Default First Startup!!!!yeahhhhhh!!its Alive!!!
IM giddy as a school girl.We started her up tonight!the vid is short and sweet,its basically headers to crossover pipe and open from there.with the turbo and muffler itll be ALOT quieter.Some things to mention,as soon as i turned the key it fired up that split second, NO hesitation.Good oil pressure,good fuel pressure(actually had WAY too much at one point til we adjusted the FPR).The gauges look sic IMO.Its finally coming together!!!!!!!!!Nick

Friends and piping......ALL cold side was done with ONE of the "cheap universal ebay FMIC kits" it was really amazing and saving a ton of cash and should keep things even cooler.

Glad you were able to start it, now go to the track and break it in

J/K'ing sounds good. The IC piping looks good too

actually its not bad.....were looking at 3" when it sits on the ground...BUT where that is is even with the tires so for example if i go over a speed bump i dont have to worry cause the tires will raise it up....the next lowest point is passanger cold side pipe but its ~5-6" so i should be ok so long as i dont get careless.

Thats what I thought when I put the P@#m kit on, Careless or not you will smack it and you will start to hate it
You should look at some ovalized pipe from http://www.drgas.com/store/home.php?cat=8

Give you some great clearance.
