Exclamation Project Nightmare Begins!!!

Just got our new bullet. We are going to try and put over 2500hp to this LSX in hopes of smashing our old LSX record. Josh will start fabbing up the turbo kit come the first of the year. Twin 88mm turbos with Billet wheels!

you know, you can ditch the dual fuel rails and just use a 3" pipe and get a tad more flow right? Looks sweet so far!
