I have a 10pd spring in the WG right now. I'm still at stock compression with meth and I/C so I should have some decent low end power and TQ. Hoping to get into the 10's with this setup...

Can you take some detailed pics of the intercooler pipe routing? Trying to figure out how to do mine.

Completely custom piping. I figured from all of the complaints I heard from other guys using the STS piping, there has to be a way to correct it. Didn't spend too much for the bends either...

Here are some pics of the intercooler route piping. This was the early stage of the build.

I haven't put injectors in yet, I'm gonna partially tune it then drive it to the dyno, put the 53# injectors in and do speed density tune. As far as dyno numbers go, I dont really care about them but I am gonna say around 540-550whp. Timeslips is all I care about so hoping for a high ten pass...

I have read Zombie's threads and they are very informative and some of the build was based off of his feedback. We did wrap it all the way back, the pics were taken prior to that. The only thing I can see hurting me right now is the LT's. But to tell you the truth, I would sacrifice a 4 or 500 rpm of spool time for a nice sound. Call me an amature if you want. I didn't build this JUST for track use.

No pun intended! i have a rear mount 4xx I to have read zombies post and Scotts build on EPP sight. I just seen what works and what dident. those long tubes are not going to hurt that much. Im also trying to get this thing right. but your build looks good. One of the biggest things I did was route my intercooler where my battery use to sit Cuttin down on the distance. Oh and one more thing that charge pipe by the header is going to heat up even with the rap. I put some reverse thermo tap on it and it drop my temp another 15 degrees at Idle. Good luck she will scream on a good tune.
