^^^^^ You 2 are funny......Make sure you put it on my STB to cover my RA sticker 
Thank you ...
Thanks for the kind words......I am having a Traction control installed....so no brass ***** needed...
Looks way better in person! I was at the shop yesterday and your ride is most impressive. 1000rwhp though?!?!?! Here I am trying to get used to driving a 550+ hp car and you are going for nearly twice that amount of power!!! You sir... must have ***** made of brass.

Update:
I just received an e-mail from Garrett's tech support department. They appear stumped, but should have an answer for us next week.
I'm going to measure my turbine housings tomorrow. I should be able to tentatively figure it out from there.

Looking good Mike. Best to ask Sharif to cover those intercooler pipes or the majic horsepower "foam" he has secretly developed for the big builds will "fall out". I bet you can only make 999.09 whp without the intercooler packing foam.

First: Mike, is that a "tall-boy" oil filter? Were you/has forged run those much before? I remember some horror stories from some of them.
Second:
you get used to it faster than you think!!!!
Had to drive to work for first time in months (remote site)....looked down on more than 1 occasion to see triple digit speeds and didn't even realize it (damn easy accel in 6th lol)
