It has been a while, haven't logged into this site ... been moving my stuff to my new place in North GA. My other half wanted a place nearer her work place. Had been complaining about the 26 traffic lights she has to go through going to work .. lol.. and man... You don't realize how much stuff or rather junk you have till you move to another place.
Thank you sir !
Sorry been busy.. almost two weeks and still have some stuff to move.
Exhaust will be 4" all the way and thanks for the compliments too.
Right , all vband flanges on turbo , downpipe, midpipe
Thanks Omar, I know it maybe too low once I drop the car a little bit more .. right now it is around 5 inches from the ground
.
Man ... got a little bit more of stuff in my other place.

holy $&^@ing $417 gerrb that is some thick exhaust pipe i remember the 3" i had on my 240sx was half that thick... i dont think you will have to deal with a bent pipe though... lol (i guess thats what happens when you street a car vs track it every pound helps)
so i went back a few pages and noticed the aluminum plate you have in front of the radiator... this plate looks out of place because it does not look factory my best though would be to run it all the way across from fender to fender and mount it below the rubber strip in the front as well as below the factory mount for the head lights and everything else...
the overall work you have put in is amazing the aluminum plate looks "ok" but compared to everything in the engine bay (polished wont help nor will painting) it does not belong as you have currently done it my thought right now is what if you ran some "Bunny ears" from the plate you have now over to the bolt for the high beam some sort of taper with fewer straight lines....

that dp &Mp is hangin too low , if you gonna drop the car a little you may run into some clearance issues.
I am running 4" from turbo all the way back and the dp was built for my car and setup so it's tucked up in there but my MP scrappes a little bit going over short speed bumps.
Looking great BTW!

I have no idea how much does polishing really cost..I used to get things chromed.... I got these polished too for $350 for my other engine. If that is a good price and you want me to hook you up.. let me know, The pictures doesnt do them justice .. they are very shiny just like chrome in person... chrome is normally double the price..
