A little back drop on the car I purchased the car in 2006 and it was a stock car with the exception of exhaust and a tune. I put some mild bolt ons some soft wall mickey thompsons and ran at the local track almost every weekend
Car in stock trim
Fast forward to about a year and a half ago and I finally had the means to start my dream build. Since college was behind me and I finally started saving some money I sent off a 6.0 block to get built for the boost I've always wanted. Here is the motors breakdown
Heads:
Ls3 Cnc heads
Competition valve job
Comp dual valve springs
Titanium retainers
Ferrera SS valves
Stock rockers with trunion upgrade
Arp head stud kit
Intake:
Fast 102 with 92 big mouth TB
Fast fuel rails with ls9 60# injectors
Ligenfelter 100m
Iron 408 9.1 compression 438hp/439tq at the wheels N/A
The cars suspension includes a BMR turbo K with UMI upper and lower a arms, founders rear control arms and phb. Umi tunnel mount torque arm, Moser 9" 35 spline axles with a spool and 3.89 gears (will change to 3.55s)
Now I've picked up a Huron V2 t4 AC kit with ceramic coated hot side and that is where the build sits. I have some decisions to make going forward like selecting a turbo to suit my needs. This will be a street car so I am not looking for a 1,000hp build. Looking for something between 650-700 to the tires.
As mentioned I have the V2 T4 AC kit with XS power BOV and WG
Those who have used the Huron v2 t4 kit I have a few questions.
1) how did you keep/trim the plastic shield pieces to route the cold side around? Also does anyone have recommendations on how to move the fuse box around for the charge pipe?
2) I want to run a 4" down pipe but route the way Huron intended has anyone done that? Pointers or tips?
Super happy with fitment and finish of Hurons kit and the ceramic coating is top notch in my opinion. Would recommend Huron to anyone. Casey and Jon are awesome with answering my emails and questions so if you see this guys thanks again for the top notch customer service!!!

My fuse bracket is trimmed but also moved off to the side.
And depending on your motor mounts you will be able to route a 4" downpipe on the passengers side. I used one 4" U bend and that took me to basically where the supplied Huron one went.
When I was done I noticed they were both pretty much the same. (Not like there's room to do it any other way) if needed I can see if I can get some pictures.

Man if you could get some pictures that would be awesome! I appreciate your comments and input
Tonight's adventures included taking out the fuel tank so I can install my walbro 450 and New return fuel system. Also upgraded to stainless brake lines to replace the rubber lines
Looking good! When i pulled my tank, I used simple green (not diluted) sprayed it on with a squirt bottle, wiped a few heavily soiled areas then rinsed. After about 3 times it looked brand new. Also great for degreasing... love that stuff

Thanks for the tip I plan to give everything a good cleaning since it's all stripped.
