Some pics from Stenod Performance...... piping showed up..... still waiting on the Turbo and K-Member....Turbo's on backorder.....decided to go with a AJE K-Member so we can fit a 4" downpipe.

It does when you order it with no motor mounts and you have someone who can fab you some new ones that work.

There was no way I was going to let this project go unfinished bro, no way. It's not everyday I get a chance to help someone follow their dreams, and with all the times you've helped me through things, you definitely deserve it. Only a few more weeks to wait.

Where did that thumper flange come from? Who MACHINES a flange like that anyway? LOL Seems like an un-needed cost if you ask me.

It does look good though! LOL

SPD actually machines all their flanges and v-band rings. MUCH nicer to work with And believe it or not, they are about the same price as alot of the laser cut flanges i've seen/bought. The v-bands are alot easier to work with than the stamped ones as well.

Should be a potent setup

Wow...you're definately not ******* around. I'm anxious to see what comes out of Stenod this time.

What turbo are you going with. Some kind of T6 w/ a 5" outlet it looks like...
