That thing is fcuk'n nice man, looks like a bit of a sleepa too, i like how the cooler is hidden behind the grille and not hanging out the front, awsome job man. I like how youve dropped the pipes out just before the rear wheels. Awsome.

Thanks guys for all the great comments there i appreciate them all!!! the first tune we ran 9psi and with a single 3" exhaust and it was restricting it heaps and i probably had the wastegate plumbed in at the wrong angle and causing inteferance there too but it made a healthy 282.4rwkw and did it pretty easy too...so now with the new exhaust and better dump pipe at 4" in diameter and maybe 1 or 2 more psi should make over the 320-330 rwkw mark new and that will be heaps.....it spools up at aroun2800rpm then makes full boost at 3500rpm so it gets real fun real quick!! it runs 295/50/15 and it just eats them for dinner!!! fun times ahead!! keep up the pics guys sure there is more around that them!! i love that WB at the end there its insane and the quad turbo OMG love to see the hours put into that as i know how many hours i put into my setup and mine is very simple compared to that!!!
