I was kind of hoping to see that weird *** piping that just has different sections of tubing welded together though. What is that called? how does the flow compare with regular mandrel bent tubing? I would imagine it might be a bit worse due to all the angles compared to the smoothness of the mandrel.

Looks like a quallity set up, but why would you bother to use twin turbos if they are not sequential?? I thought the whole point of twins was for spool up time and low end power...
why wouldn't you just go single for less complication instead of running parralel?

Mmmm...internal w/g....no replumbing required. 
1) Will it fit with SMIC like M2 large or CWR?
2) Any chance it will work with boxed CAI like M2's or CWR's?
3) Taking any deposits?

i want some more solid numbers to know what the t04r is capable of before slapping the car together now.
No rush..i have no intention of starting work on it for at least 2 more months
