I bet if you'd just remove the rear bumper and foam you could cut those ears of the end of the frame and have room to make it straight all the way to the back and just one 90° bend to the turbo instead of the kinks above.

ls9 cam requires a new front cover and cam sensor and timing chain[not budget friendly] most people go with the z06 cam which is right at the 550 lift range that your loking for. easy to find and no other mods to do but valvesprings

Not sure what you mean, because I haven't built it yet. But I'll be using 3" cold side piping all the way from the turbo to the intake. And I have a large, 1500HP capable Spearco Intercooler already mounted up front.
Yea, that's why the LS9 cam only "crossed my mind". But the Z06 cam doesn't have enough lope to make me happy, so I'll probably be ordering a custom grind cam later today.

question for ya on the return side, how did you route the pipe back to the motor? im kinda not liking the under the Kmember portion. just sits way too low for my liking. after I get the car finalized for dyno, ill readjust my front pipes to gain some clearance.
