thats an impressive setup, did you cut the collectors off and reweld on new ones with the Vband flange?

or did you just cut off the normal flange and weld the vband on?
Hows ground clearance with the downpipes going under the K member?
again awsome looking setup, want to make me one?

Since I had to modify one of the primaries I had to weld on a new collector.

I have at least 6 inches of clearance as it sits, I will be lowering the car 2 inches soon.


thanks,

It pays to be patient and make sure everything works right. Mine is in good hands right now and hopefully should start today. Looks nice let me know what kind of #'s you put down.

That's some kickass engineering. Well done.

Man Tiago that looks pimp. Let me know how the units spool in that configuration. I have another customer running twin MPT-70's on a 427 C5, and I'm waiting to see what the results will be as well.

Jose,


Im quite impressed with the spool actually, on a 427 it should instaspool!

It is faster then my old single kit, and that blows my mind... You know that BFT had alot of inertia though lol
