next time just tell them you have the tornado, and you needed a big exhaust to handle the extra power from it

You did have them serivice the Radiator, Transmission, Rear End, differential, muffler bearings, and rearview mirror tassle while you were there didn't you!

After all all of those things are supposed to be serviced every 10,000 miles or trip to Jiffy Lube, whichever comes first, lol!

I hope you went the extra mile and put in the piston return springs while you were putting this project together. With the low compression pistons you run with that big ass turbo it'll be a bitch to get the motor to turn over and crank up on the cooler mornings. The piston return springs should help out the longevity of your engine by reducing the strain on the motor upon startup. Hardly anyone pays enough attention to the fact that 90+% of all engine damage is done at engine start up before the oil has time to lubricate your internals.

Piston Return Springs own joo.
















































For that extra piece of mind you might want to check into getting an oil muffler too. It helps to keep the oil in the right places after you shut your engine off. That way you cut back on 99% of the metal on metal grinding an egine has to indure on startup.
