    guessing mild steel?

    looks good

    Yes, mild steel. I'm a cheap bastard. Don't have a tig either.. It was a kit I bought over 2 years ago. Figured a good time to use it. If I ever get the car done I think I'll make a trip to Dynotune to see if it made a difference or not. The only other change that I may do is have the intake cleaned up.

      oh yeah it will definately make more power. most people say over 950 or so whp the 1.75 tubing will start showing noticable gains. Im glad you got rid of those on center POS's too, just dont like them! For exhaust you could do the turbines toward the fenders and run the exhaust down between the strut and the frame easy enough, and out through the fenders in front of the doors. That would still get you past the firewall i think, and would look/sound badass.

          are you serious asshole? you have no idea who i am and i do have very good advice, ive put so many hours into reasearching turbo stuff its rediculous. Not like i have daily driven a 700hp turbo car for 2 years, keep your personal assaults to yourself

          I would like to add that i notice you have decent sized travel limiters on there, making running the pipes through that area a little difficult. I see it done alot on SN95s though so there may still be room, would keep alot of heat out of your engine bay

            No, I dont know who you are, and dont really care. What events have you won? Are you John Force? Bull Lutz? Bob Glidden? Why would I know you? Should I buy a vowel?

            My pumpgas pos daily driver is over 700 with no juice or boost. Its not a personal assault, What do you know about 7-8 second cars? Nothing?

            2 years.... I have shit stains in my driving suit older than that. Bwahahahaha

                My guess is either the little blue pills are losing their affect for "Mr. 7 Second" or he is truly a 7 second kind of guy.... and he is just lashing out at people tonight in frustration

                Just a guess though

                        I didn't..... just described you as bluntly arrogant

                                        Ya guys, I thinks this has been blown way out of proportion. I blame Bill for this. Stop starting fast car threads.
