If you do that WS6 hood will be a no go unless you cut a hole in the top. The intake is SWEET though!

You mean like cut all the way through where the hole will be visible from the outside? I'm going to have to cut it anyways for a elbow if I decided on staying with the Vic JR.

UPDATE:
Got more stuff done on the car. Changed the side to side turbo support bracket to stainless steel and welded strait to flange. Looks nice. Got the waste gate pipe routed into the d/p. 02 bung welded in. I also started on my radiator hoses. This was NOT cheap. Converted the top hose to a -16. My bottom is a -20. I only got the top side done but turned out awesome. Only thing left is filling in all the holes through the engine bay to clean things up, painting and finish routing the exhaust to the CME. I already have stuff at the powder coater. Here are some pictures. I took some pictures of the brackets for those who wanted to see how things were mounted

What are your goals E.T. wise for the car? Mid 8's at least I'd expect...? Is 1cdub going to do a 8.50 cage for you too?

I figure it Dave can go 8.40's@160+ on a T4 91mm at high 3600 low 3700 pound raceweight you should be able to do the same on a T6 91mm at 3600 raceweight. You think?
