Wow, I really like it, I use to have the same exact mani along time ago on one of my setups. The GSR dash board.. very cool, front cross member badass. Things that are not so cool, I'd really get rid of the Starion intercooler, yes its modified, but those cores flow like ---- compared to others on the market, and from what it looks like it seems you are going for big #'s.. I'm sure you plan on upgrading later. So I'll stfu, Also I'd probably round off the corners on that downpipe flange, it kinda looks hackish square.

Overall, I think your going to have a badass machine when shes all done, especially when its built!

good luck, and we'd love to see more pics.

Yeah, i think you recommended that manifold right after you got it, so i've had it sittin around since then. I got the IC for like $40, so i'm going to stick with if for now. I think one of the nice things is that is allows for very short charge pipes and should help drop spool time. Like you say, once i just up with more power I will probably drop in another one. It will probably have to be custom with the way I have the mounting points. I really don't want the pipes running outside of the frame rails, just adds so much more volume to the system. Yeah I made that flange out of 3/8", and I didn't take the time to do the edges and i think i probably will leave it that way. I've been working on some wiring behind the dash over the weekend and might have things ready to tomarrow.

yeah i converted it from manual to auto because i'm really too lazy to do all that work to shift, plus i don't know how to drive stick....
j/k, its probably hidden behind the mass of wires and fuse panel. haha, whats the fun of a automatic?

Very nice. The way you did the sheet gauge cluster is sweet.

I have a similar exhaust setup, but with no cat and an inline cherrybomb. I am warning you it's very loud.

Otherwise your setup looks sweet.
