The painter screwed a bunch of stuff up. I spent a couple of weeks fixing that. Now I'm putting all new plumbing in. 3.5" from the blower to the intercooler and 4" from the intercooler to the TB, I built a nice new shroud and it's at powdercoating. After that's done, a MGW shifter and a new clutch master and tuning this new setup. Skunkworks was kind enough to help me out with some restrictor plate programs to take to the laser cutters. I'm worried if I let this thing eat too much it'll everything behind the motor. Nothing back there was made to handle what this combo might be capable of. I've got it restricted down to a 4" pipe and small filter now.

I'll post up pics when I get a chance. I'm trying to make sure I've got it ready for Houston.

I can't wait to see it worked all out Bret. Wish I could make it to Houston.

Thanks Troy. I had hoped you were coming down for the event. I've been anxious to see your car in it's 1kHP trim.
