wmulli, true, but in Dave's defense it's working pretty well on his, the second quickest NA-T in the country. Wouldn't mind if he came out with a larger DBW T-body....*nudge, wink*
Hermosa, nice man.

I think that depends on how much (if any) improvement you get over stock![Wink](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/wink.gif)
It sure looks good, but I'm more interested in seeing some dyno numbers, especially WHERE the gains/losses are in the rpm range.

Only thing I am missing now is the stereo, wood steering wheel, and HIDs. The car will be complete with all possible mods I want.

The SC400 project is slow due to being busy at work. I can't complain though since I came back from Cancun today.

Now if I have the intake side completely on the driver's side which is opposite from the exhaust manifold, remove the EGR tubing and internal obstructions to flow, remove length of tubing and bends to the intercooler then I think this will definitely add to the efficiency of the system as well as help spool. Time will tell.

The methanol/water injection sound like it's going to be fun.
