Here's another just for the hell of it. But I know the Lambo's are capable of alot more than this haha.

Travis: How close is it to being done? I can't wait to see it run!

Get a burns muffler at the end, that setup always sounds AWESOME on a 2j, and recirc the wg. I've heard a couple 2j's like this and its boner-riffic.

Really wishing I had known that this setup isn't too difficult to do, I would have much rather put in a 2j than this whole vq thing.

Burns race mufflers weigh in at like 3 lbs. You think they actually do anything?

They were designed to do the least muffling and weight possible so race cars can pass track inspections by having a 'muffler'
You can also get the vibrant race mufflers, they are also really small walled (4.5" outer diameter for a 4" pipe) and they are about a 1/3 the cost, but burns has the name that people recognize lol. $100 vs $300...

Not sure if you have these parts. Billet timing belt tensioner bracket and I didn't see a ATI/Fluidampner crank pulley. If you plan on making any power, I recommend changing those two parts. I speak from a great deal of experience, breaking my own and witnessing it happen to others. The stock parts will not hold up long with higher power levels. Swaps looks great so far, keep up the great work.
