**** my welding isn't the best in the world, but my lil crossover didn't crack under the weight of a GT42 that WASN'T SUPPORTED at all and was daily driven on some of the worst roads in the nation. Like Kev sez lets see what happens.

Stop talking about the welds!!!!!!

I just wanted to say that too since the last 10 posts say that. I didnt notice any negativity toward the welds by anybody's post. Phaseshift mentioned the quality, but he was very classy and educational in his response. It appears that the 2nd or 3rd post originally got deleted since a mod piped in saying dont talk about the welds. Other than the rest of the posts were fine. I noticed the weld quality last night and then went to relook this morning once this post grew in size and noticed I couldnt see the pics as well anymore. thats all. Nobody is criticizing. I even said it looks good in my first or second post.

Back to the topic, when is this sucka gonna be fired up?

its keeps the stock everything, also the most important thing for me is that it keeps the turbo away from the back of the radiator where ive seen many people have cooling problems, and u hear that hi-flo, he wants ur turbo kit and he already has one......
