Default 1000th post, neat announcement!

Alright for my 1000th post on the clublexus forums I am annoucing my Twin Turbo ES300 project. The turbos just arrived this morning and most of the other parts should be here within the next week. I plan on documenting this project for my fellow ES drivers to check out.

Here's a teaser pic of the turbos, fresh out of the box and my nitrous bottle keeping them company.

I'm not worried about efficiency, i'm worried about making it work at all, lol.

Congrats on your 1000th, and no better way to honor it than a brand new modification to your ES that's probably NEVER been done before
