Awesome. Once I do some more research on this radiator decision I'll put some money down. Is there a limit for this GB? 5 people or can more get in on it? Thanks!

I apologize everyone on the 2nd GB for a few days of delay in making the payment.

I had some problems with Paypal but everything's okay now and the payment's been sent.

Thanks a lot, Logan.

Recieved the two payments! The GB has started offically today! If you guys want more good news, I already bought all the intercoolers and radiators in advance to help avoid any issues. A bit of risk is always worth it This week is pretty slammed but work will be starting in the next couple days!

Well after the issues with the intercoolers last time, we made sure not to get snowballed again. Thank you!

heres what it looks like with no engine in bay.... lol

Front no bumper


Aight this is where i get to start having fun



The lower radiator hose makes contact with wastegate
Turbo will make contact with intercooler.

I did a slight mock up with the bumper on and shine 3 piece carbon under tray on and it fits with out the hose on the lower neck of the radiator. and the radiator is not moded for use of stock fans.

im thinking in order to get everything to fit remove upper core support bar to allow entire set up to move forward 3 inches. after looking at it ill most likely be able to keep the configuration.
(heres how i think so)
*on the lower radiator brackets move 1 hole forward (will have to make an extension plate
*cut the upper core support off (will require hood pins afterwards)
*fabricate mounts to come off crash bar (may need modification to main black IC supports)
*aluminum ducting would require some trimming

looks actually pretty minimal. ill just have to wait and see how its going to come along as i continue to gut everything to get painted...

Props for a great kit... (its just too bad i have a long manifold runners and a big *** turbo... poor me )
