There is a guy running a 4" lift off with a AJE kmember. He is not having any issues.

A little more progress on the Notch. Custom manifold Logs all done out of sch10, intercooler mounted, charge pipe welded to the TB, and mounted the BOV's.

More progress. Charge pipes from turbo to intercooler routed and filters mocked up. Nice short compact routing. Couplers will be black and found some slick black air filters. Never saw black ones before.

Did you weld a piece to the throttle body? If so that is smart. Mine has already popped off once. I really need to get something to weld aluminum. This dc only tig is great, but I really want to be able to do aluminum.

Sure did. Looks clean and no coupler to come off here. Also cut compressor housing and welded cast elbows directly to it for better clearance and a straight connection.

Will be placing those this weekend stay tuned for pictures of placement. They are going to come right of the bend up to the turbos and sit between the turbo and head.

Traded my 2.5" cervini for a 6" harwood plus the guys a painter so it will be color matched as part of trade. Cold side piping all done just needs some finish welding.
