The precision on that build is incredible! Very clean and well laid out.

Two questions I would like to ask. Do you have any supports for the turbo other than the flange it bolts to? Do you find any problems with the expansion of the SS exhaust with those fixed position hangers or is there an alloy that doesn't expand so much?

Car really looks great!

i do have another support under the turbo that connects to the down pipe.there will be expansion for sure,when we ran it on chassis dyno we didn't get alot of movement in the pipes.i spent alot of money on coatings inside and out to keep expansion down.after we were all done with the turbo mounting and down pipes another fabricator said he would have done a few different things for pipe expansion with a slip style joint. might have to do this later. greg

WOW the Fabrication work and attention to detail is incredible, obviously someone loves what they do! Very few take the time to do things right any longer.

The monochromatic shades of Gray is a very clean look.

Holy Schnikes.

That is one incredible build.

Good job everyone. Hope to see it in person some day.
