I would just say next kit is not going to be one like this where the fenders and skirts have to work together as a fit piece. do like normal over fenders where you can run whatever kit you know not where everything ties together.

Since the kit has me a little mad I had my friend Jon start on the V-mount and then turbo manifold.

here is my ride height after the motor was in.
I need to trim the fenders a little on the back.



fitting the intercooler to the top bar




how it looks now with both upper and lower supports on.

K&M missile rear over fenders dont require a modified or matching side skirt...find a set of those and you're golden

The turbo was just to fit the manifold since this will be a production piece by the people building it and wanted to make sure that size turbo would fit.

Manifold is coming along very nice.
