it is in good hands... for some reason TRT always ends up with these weird off the wall projects.....

from sticking turbos in the *** ends of Jimmies, to trucks, to custom turbos an mustang cobras, to old school street rods.... throw in a few road race cars, some Denalis and you have an interesting trip to the shop everytime I go!!!
