they went out of business.

get with the times

they actually still owe customers trannies/money. they are selling their personal drag car for undisclosed reasons.

PROGRESS

I figure its time to let the secret out… A bit earlier than i wanted but since i’m near 100% sure this is going down, I’ll post about it now. The pics speak for themselves

Last one i’m holding the pipe up there. I need to cut the hole in the main feed tube and then tack it all up. Hardest piece i think is gonna be the other center one. I gotta come out to the side and then bend up. I cant just feed another 45 angled 90 degree bend like the other middle tube. Too close together.

So yeah… i’m going twin turbo this year with a 6 speed… should be fun and should run 9’s

spark plugs are in place but i didnt have the wires in yet. i can see the downpipe will be a problem especiallly if i try to run 3". The angle plugs will be close to the pipe. I may look to run long wires underneath the motor and wrap the pipe/wires the best i can or just sell the heads to get new ones with straight plugs

> holy mother lol first you skip 12s and now 10s jesus dude haha

didnt skip the 10’s i have 6 passes in the 10’s from the bottle 🙂

Got the driver side one done pretty much today. Its all tacked up and i just need to do some fill work on some of the pipes which join the collector/log piece. Also alittle around the flange, block off the 4 corners with some flat sheet.

Gotta determine wastegate piece yet to but i’ll do that abit later after i finish the passenger side one which i hope to start Friday and definately hammer it out this weekend.
