We have tossed the idea around, but I like the Tube headers.

Understandable as the stuff that needs headers tends to be more custom than off the shelf. If you where selling off the shelf TT stuff (ie like TTi or APS did) there would problaby be more advantage. However I can see how cast headers do limit the kits compeared to hearders. Aslo minor changes in design can start to become very costly where as a header design change costs nothing. Also they dont look as good do they? lol

Chris.

EDIT. So i dont sound like a total tw*t or that im putting Josh's work down as lets face it, its F**KING amazing!

You should have almost 1.5 donuts left over by my calculations. How about a twist?





My boy should be calling this week about the PT106. Steve keeps confusing him.

Made some headway on the DP's. Ordered some more 3" SS to clean them up a bit. I will post pics of those later when they are done.

Got the intercooler finished:

Is the radiator going under the upper core support or will you be cutting that all out?
