The big single pipe you see running forward is the downpipe provided with the kit, so there was no fabrication forward of the yellow arrow. Make sense? Props to AAM for a great job on this design.
Yeah, that makes perfect sense. That's what I meant by chopping the "X" n half...just didn't know they supplied the downpipe to meet up with the lower half of the "X". That makes it easy enough....and it looks great.

isnt the AC line a direct replacement (that requires recharge) prior to the installation of the kit? I was planning on bringing the replacement part to the delaer and having them do the AC line replacement prior to dropping the car off at the shop for the kit install. Just want to make sure I gave it right.

That is correct. The AC line can be replaced WELL in advance of kit installation....

If you have a chance to post the chart, can you please include your A/F graph if possible? I'm really interested to see other peoples charts.

ok guys.... here the deal.... the car put down 375.9 whp with the turbo kit... a few problems...
first off when we dyno'd the air/fuel it was running around 12.5!!! WTF, we called turbonetics and all they could say is that they cant make a mistake because theres only one reflash that they do... ok second thing is that when at idle, the car is misfiring like crazy!! im really worried on what to do.... please anyone help?
