    ...for my pipe set that is. Re-wroked my up/down pipes and got my EWG on. 20 hours of work later that is.

    The turbo sits completely flat now, thanks to the super tight 3" bend I got from a Derek(other 30R Tleg). No more banging off the firewall and tranny. The uppipe is braced to the block as well, so it feels really smooth now without hte turbo just flopping around as it pleased.

    The dump is open at the moment, but will get routed back into the downpipe within the next week. It isn't that loud really, just rather odd sounding. It sounds like taking your lips and going "pbtpbtpbtptppbtpbtpbtpb" into a 1.75" pipe.

    On trhe other hand, the car would not start after work tonight. I think I have a main relay or ignition switch out as the only thing on the car that worked was the dome and dope lights, plus the hazards. Weird. I hope I can make it firestone tomorrow.
