Thanks to everyone for the support!
The slip joint is a burns double slip and the turbo also has a brace on it. So I dont think that it will be a problem. We put it there for the header to have room to grow.

Maybe you can if I get a chance to goto a cars and coffee meet out your way when the car is done.
Believe it or not, it is getting really close. The big thing left after we get all the fab done is the body work.

Mind if I ask where you got that good lookin' hood?
Are you going to round out the edges, or cover the opening with a grille?

Which hood are you talking about? the black car or the red one?
The one on the black car came from extreme dimensions.

Look into RacingBrake 2pc rotors they flow way more air than AP, Brembo, Alcon's 2pc and in result run much cooler temps. Even the Works Mitsu Evo X cars for 08 will run RB in the world challenge series. Those guys have tested every 2pc out there and choose RB.

what is the runner length on the exhaust mani, are they equal length? I know that 18-24 inches is ideal.
