Looking mint Hayden, I love that plenum! can I ask why you've painted your cooler pipes black? Coz your old VL had black pipes too? I would have thought that being black the would absorb a lot of heat? keep up the good work mate

I would have thought that being black the would absorb a lot of heat? keep up the good work mate the pipes are made of exhaust tubeing that way we could make them at home as i only have a mig welder at home therefore the pipes have to be either powder coated or painted to stop them from rusting. as for them being black i just felt the engine bay needed a bit more black to it but now its lacking in chrome /polished stuff which the stainless tanks ill be getting made should sort that

so If it exits out the side of the car, thats still legal is it? I always thought they always had to be plumbed back into the exhaust to make them legal.

they have to be past the cabin to be legal as far as i know,that means just before the front wheel
