OK I was jealous after the first few pics but now I am just interested in seeing the completed setup. I can imagine how much work this must be. Keep posting the pics. So far it looks awsome. It would also be nice to include some of the issues you ran into and how you worked around them. Ohh by the way nice work!!!!!!

Thanks guys!!! My buddy Kyle is pretty much responsible for this work of art. I just helped and learned a lot.

It has went together actully super easy. I really think I wouldn't mind doing another one and doing at all myself (wouldn't look near as pretty, but would work). Headers worked awesome. They were originaly intended for use on 88-95 chevy truck. We cut off the ball flanges and welded v-bands in place.

The radiator thing we had previously done but did not do it well. So Kyle went back through a passed a couple beads. The downpipe is pretty muhc the biggest pain. You want to fit a 3" or 3.5" if you can and there are not a lot of ways to run one in this car. Everything comes apart with v-bands.

I could also probly install this into my car in a matter of a couple hours. So quick and clean.

To top off the cake.. plug changes are easier now! lol
