Ohh snap! but sadly true 
the weakest 700 ft-lbs ever. But its crazy bc my dyno 100% overlays Hal's street car until I start making 125 more HP
But I heard that you dont have a real car unless your tuner needs to wear a respirator. HA
Between this kit and the BPs 6765 and the current PL gt35/37, we'll have a very rounded selection of powerbands to chose from for a single kit.
good times for future FI VQ owners.

We have run a gt4094 with the largest ar on the turbine on the vq ,it had 5 psi boost at 2700rpm and 18psi at about 3900-4000 will be interesting to see the curve on the 40 88.

here is a few pics of the manifold with a slight polish before wrapping it. also a few pics of the actual manifold wrapped up and also installed on the car with the twin mvr's mounted up. finishing up the wg dump tubes and dp and ic piping today. will be starting on the oiling side and intake side today also. this is just a prototype, not for resale. we are utilizing this as a stepping tool to make the next one more towards production. material will be the same but more simplified to utilize the stock headers. will be using a smaller compressor housing also for more room. also will be adding in flex pipes and also two more vbands in the mix to help with diy'ers. trying to make it as simple as possible to install and deinstall. will have it ready for production on the next person that wants to send there car down for the finalized production piece at a heavy discount

The bracket that is on there is not the final bracket also. it was used to brace the turbo in the correct location that we wanted to be in. gonna cut the new bracket out on the cnc plasma table we have here.
