How is the space around the compressor housing? Would you change anything with your setup's fabrication if you had to do it again?

I'm assuming that's a 4" Downpipe?

it has plenty of space only thing I'd change is maybe build it around a tubular k-member, it's a 3.5 down pipe for 6-8" then to an oval pipe then to 4" pipe feed into a bullet muffler then 4" all the way out the back.

What rear/gear are you going with now?

Also, back to the hotside...by look @ pics..i'm assuming you went with 2.5 for the cross over? What were the primaries sized at? 16ga tubing?
