Default Keeps getting better
Bud who built my turbo kit, has stepped it up with a custom set for his car.
Still needs some work to be completed, street killing vids to follow in a couple of weeks

UPDATE: motor was bad, it was rebuilt and new TT set up done.
Tune should be competed next.

Getting there, he's got the cooling system buttoned up, now needs to run down pipe, finish the exhaust with wide band and the tuning can begin.
