Fuel pump bracket showed up today, this thing looks so nice I almost dont want to put it on, I got my Magnus V5 with dual rails ordered so that should be here within a few weeks.

Very nice! Still going to run E85 or 98? Get this thing done for this season! Did you line somebody up for your manifold fabrication?

e98 or maybe Meth since this wont be on the street much if at all anymore, but I already bought the ETS 6" intercooler so I'm not sure on that yet

What's nice about the 6-inch intercooler is that air restriction is very low. Even if you ran methanol I would stay with the intercooler. The car is going to be very fast!

Yeah its still a 2.5 inlet/outlet though too, I didn't even think about it when I ordered it but it may not be that much of a restriction anyways.

Me too haha, its taking a little bit of time but once the manifold gets done i'll be able to start knocking it out because all the big money things should be done then. **knock on wood**

Don't leave it at 2.5, I can help modify it . I recommend a 3.5"upper and 3" lower. I like the vanjen hd clamps too! Would you get a 90mm tb for the v5 manifold? Ktuned is a good cost effective tb ( I don't recommend many others).

The fuel pump bracket sure looks like a nice piece. What did you end up doing for the exhaust manifold, front facing?

Yeah I'll probably go that route!

Haven't gotten it made yet, the one in the pics is my old one. But yeah it'll be front facing too!
