They look good. Did you polish them yourself?

yes!
Even the 2ndary compressor is polished although you cannot see it. Took 2 full days of sanding and polishing with a polishing wheel on a grinder. Fun.:p

Wow, that really looks good, you just need to put up more pics. Also, your 1/4 mile time was that with street tires or slicks?

I pulled the whole set of turbos, notice the Ypipe is fully polished also. And the 1/4 mile time is with Drag radials. Heres another pic, I wish I had a host I could put up big pics of the car.

Hey Art!! Where've you been? Remember me? The stock IC piping you sent me? Thanks again!! How've you been? Hopefully everything is fine out by you. Anyway the turbos look great! Too bad they aren't more visible under there. Your car looks killer. If you're ever in the NY area let me know so we can meet up! Happy holidays man!!

Smile Happy Holidays!

Yeah, of cours I remember man, good to hear from ya! Did you finally get the new motor in your car, thought I had read that you blew your motor a while back. I've been around, just had computer issues, switched companies and my interim computer wasn't lettting me post for some reason, only once in a blue moon. Everythings going swell, been polishing my *** off and just got a roll cage and some new chromed 18's for the FD, Im looking at a salvage title FD from Barbados right now to buy for a new "road race/sebring/SCCA " competition car. Not too sure if it will go thru but keep your fingers crossed! And Happy holidays right back at ya!
