He just finished the down pipe today. The parts are going out to coat this week and probably assemble the car the following weekend.

Very nice. I am thinking of doing my headers up high on my LS1 car for my next build. The Big One . I dont know how it will fit but I will be finding out as soon as I max out the TC76MPS.

Keep us posted on the build bro.

Can't wait to see that ST74 unit hitting hard on boost. That sucker should make ALOT of noise with that ETT wheel.

Yes, we'll get there. Maybe the weather will be nice this weekend.

The turbo sounds nice under boost. I want to get some numbers on this puppy compared to the other setup. I'm off to get some more work done on the car
