So a bit of a sad update me and my fab guy aren’t on the same page anymore and it’s been a long time coming but I am pulling the car out of his shop due to the fact he rather work on people’s cars that have issues with paying him rather then someone who offered to pay for everything up front I snapped a couple of pics before leaving the other day here is the exhaust which is a 5in to 4in ss downpipe that switches over to aluminum at the trans and runs a 4in all the way out back

FWIW, my FC with a 3.5" downpipe was a 15 minute plug change, for all 8.   :)
This is a 4in all the way out the back

Man, I just don't see how you guys route pipes the places you do.   :o

How the hell are you gonna change plugs?   :scratch:
We are able to change them from underneath the car

That's a creative tensioner setup lol.

Is that a GT4788? Should be rowdy.
Close it’s a gt4718r should flow pretty well I will have to switch my fuel setup if I want to max that puppy out

And as for the turbo placement I was going to run Digi cars old turbo setup but due to me having a different subframe the turbo would sit well below the oil pan and I don’t want to run a scavenger pump so we are going to go ahead and make one

Also spent a good part of the day trying to figure out how to run the drive belt due to the fact I am now running a electric water pump and this is what we came up with
Then we realize that we didn’t really have any room for the oil return from the turbo and we made the decision to cut the ac belt ring off the pulley and I have to say am really happy how it is turning out so far

And here is the final setup and everything lines up prefect
