Hot rod looks like its gonna be fun!

For everyone that's built a FFR kit, worth it?
How much open garage space does it really need? Can it be done in the middle of a 2 car garage?

Seriously considering selling/parting out my stables to build one. Even though the Cobra caught my interest first I'm leaning towards an LS powered Daytona coupe or 818C with my old Subaru parts. GTM is way out of my budget.

My garage is 24' x 24' It could be done in a bit smaller but i wouldn't attempt in anything less than a double. As for whether the kit is worth it or not ill let you know soon once I'm driving it

Nice job on the exhaust. They don't give you much clearance to go through the frame. It's coming along nice.

Thanks, ya it is a tight squeeze. I will probably end up adding some flex sections and Vbands to replace the flanges at some point. Hoping to fire it up in the next week or two.

Nice! I enjoy your videos and how easy you make it, but something happens between my computer and when I get in the garage and to the Camaro. It doesn't look so easy anymore..... Nice job.

I'm wondering if you will have issues with MAF readings with the filter connected to it.

You may need more laminar flow (a section of pipe before and after the MAF). I could be wrong though. Also, think about going speed density tune and bye bye MAF all together.
