I agree with that statement. Billy's been a great source of parts and info.

BTW, the word secretive + turbo LS1 doesn't go together. I have no less than one comment per day from strangers on my setup. If they don't see the turbo in the rear, they see the massive intercooler taking up the entire front end. And for the blind, the blow-off valve clues them in.

BTW, I have about $7.5K in my setup, and I got some of the stuff cheap. (ie used).

nice twin setup in the pics, are those the stock tips attached? they look like it..maybe seem a little longer tho

it might not be very secretive, lol but unless they hear the BOV on my setup, which i know people will here it they won't be seeing it any unless they get a long good look from the rear, got some plans to do a lot of little work to keep things hidden and looking stock
