kinda reminds me of these ol studebakers!
Now if you'd put one turbo in each of the grill air intakes that would look awesome!

Yea, i kinda had mixed feelings about cutting the hole where the noise comes to a point in the front. Thought it might change the way the car looks. When we finish fiberglassing it in, we might paint it to match the car.

Does the cut-out allow you to change the turbo size without problem?

No that was actually the 106mm. We were going to a local true ten race but it got rained out. The 91.5 mm is back on for The Clash of The Titans this weekend. It looks like it will be rained out as well. And no the hole doesn't make it easier to change the turbo.
