Mine will be up in a few weeks. Just waiting on the converter to get back.

When do you plan to have yours up? Winter is fast approaching up there.

Almost done now battery relocation with push off handle. My buddy got the collector all done true twin scroll/divided housing all pipe is schedule 10 stainless. 2.5" merged into the divided flange. Some off the manifolds also started the brace. Its looking awesome! He will start making these kits custom so once this is done email with requests. But getting close now!!

That twin scroll set-up is the way to go.

I think you will be extremely happy with the spool of this set-up with the cam I suggested you to use and that turbo combined with the stall you're using.

Can't wait to see it running down the track!
