Cage, window net, and seat mounting were all done by Alston up in Antioch Illinois. It's custom.

I went with black hotsides and silver coldsides per Larry's suggestion.

No I would hold back, 80% tech and 20% humor is fine but not the other way around.

Dan, how does the pipe neck down... is it all four inch from the intercooler to the TB?

who said i was joking??and it necks down down at the intercooler to 3.5"and then back up with a ventury reducer at the t.b.,there was no way a 4"induction out of the intercooler would have fit through the existing hole with enough clearance to prevent rattles,performance will not be affected by this reduction

PTE does anti surge delete for free now when you order the turbo.. maybe you can send the housing back to them for a deleted one.

Notice how the crossmember has been modified. The room made is for a narrower custom radiator.
