Or relocate your RA sticker to your fire suppression system.

And make sure Sharif packs your intercooler full of that magical power inducing styrofoam.

LOL! Unless the traction control system consists of a wood block attached to the underside of the skinny pedal, your TCS light is going to burn out.

Incredible build!

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)

yeah 6th.....my car in 6th at 75mph, pulls harder than most cars in 1st or 2nd gear lol......full boost at just under 3k rpm in 5th and 6th lol. (Only a matter of time before the trans isn't too happy bout that of course).

I would just give it gas to bust around some cars and look down...."oh yea that is a Buck Twenty without thinkin!!!!!!!"
