Default Quick turbo project update...

Ordered all the piping necessary to fabricate my collector pipe and downpipe tonight...

Pipe fabrication begins this Thursday and will hopefully be done by sunday...

Progress pics will be posted as they come and I will have my webcam turned on through yahoo messenger in the garage! My username on there is raceflicks so add me if you want to check out what's going on!

What manifold are you using?

Is that mandrel bent steel piping?

What are you using for an ems?
