Here you can see the blow off valve also out of the engine bay. James(who built it) wanted everything to be out of the way and look like nothing is going on. Too bad i cant hide the turbo

Bottom shot of how nicely everything fits. I really like how the 4 inch downpipe was done. I cant express how pleased i am with the way everything turned out. It was a pain in the ass but i the end worth it. I know have a custom one off turbo kit.

I'm using Koni yellows and a Skunk2 drag launch kit. You want everything set as tight as posible. This way your back is very stiff to avoid weight transfer and the front is stiff to stop any wheel hop.

Looks great Ron... James really does some excellent work... Did he throw in some free dyno time with the kit, so you can see what it does when Brad is down???

But yes, as everyone else said, it looks awesome... Cant wait to see how it performs... Im kinda curious about that downpipe too though... What are you gonna do with that???
