after this build I think I might make a drag car. Gen 1 rx7 or 90s 300zx and maybe a ls or a 1uz or 1gz. All turbo of course

Great fab work ... sub'd for sure!
Almost picked up a eastwood machine bc theyre so inexpensive and a tiny entry cost to get your feet wet. Ended up with a everlast tig ... surprising how good they are. And a decent band saw make all the difference ...
are you going to run OEM engine mounts long term?

The space was tight for the intake from the intercooler. In had to pie cut the bend and oval out part of it and cut and weld in a flat plate to make enough room for the headlight to fit.

The reason I ask is - I wore a pair of thin cow-hide gloves for a while and then I went glove-less and it felt way more comfortable ... I do wear a pair of (harbor freight) latex/rubber gloves to keep the argon scent off my skin.

Put in the lower intercooler mount this thing is solid. And mocked up the pie cuts some more for the piping. I was going to do pie cuts for the turbo to intercooler piping as well but I decided not to for how long it takes and u will never see it with the bumper on.
