I must have missed something along the line. Last I knew the Sloporado was running exhaust all the way out the back with an automatically actuated cutout thingy up front. What happened with that set-up? Complications, limitations?

Also, personally, I'd highly recommend putting some exhaust wrap on the portion that protrudes from the vehicle. I'd hate for your building funds to get rerouted to a burn center, law suit, pain and suffering...

Selfish, I know. Your projects are just so damn entertaining to follow though.

Ah... got it. It went out when the new whistle went in. No complications or limitations other than 5 to 4 to 3... and having another use for it. Thought that was a pretty keen setup BTW.

What do your IATs during extended idling (once up to operating temp) / cruise/ after hot lapping look like?

Very informative video. Out of curiosity, where does the hose go that's attached to the nipple on the passenger side of the intake?

Thanks for the review.

FWIW I recently tuned a set of the cheap Bosch 210's (on E85) on an MS3x. No heat issues, idles great.
