That's a nice looking setup. What kind of manifolds are being used? Who did the kit? What kind of power are you expecting?

Maybe its just the way the pic was taken but that DP looks really low, I'm fairly sure it would scrape the ground on my car.

Setup looks nice though, I bet its killing you not to drive it!

Thanks everyone, my goal is about 800-850 rwhp on pump gas. I think that should be doable.

This was the single turbo that Tiago made for his car, he took it off and sold it to me so he could get started on his twin kit. expecting 800-850rwhp on pump and 1000+ on race gas

Actually the ground clearance wasn't that bad there is also some more room to fix the piping, But its actually a lot better then my STS kit i had on there previously and even with that on there i was still able to go over speed bumps which is all i really care about around here because there really isn't anything else to worry about. All the roads here are very well maintained not any low points. So as long i don't do any off-roading i think i will be fine . But seriously this is only a cruiser for highway/street driving and occasional track use so ground clearance isn't really a huge factor.

Yea me too lol, i actually heard it for about 3 sec before the car would turn off due to it not being tuned and it sounded pretty bad ***. Has a nice size cam in there too.

Thanks for all the kind words everyone been waiting on this build for almost 1 1/2 years from the time i started ordering parts and i am really excited about it.
