my official build thread

Looks sick! I am interested to see what kind of underhood temps you will see with that crossover there

Good looking build! Should be one hell of a ride! Damn it didn't take long for that pipe to start rusting!

The plan was to run the pipe lower but when it came to building it, it would have just been way too many bends to do that. Its a way more direct route going this way. And David, I'm untreated too. I hear that exhaust wrap works really well and my engine bay has so much air flow with no fender Wells and a lot of plastic crap removed. It always seems to run very cool and I hope it'll be fine. And yea this mild steel did rust fast but its just surface rust, it'll come right off with a 3m pad. Should I use bbq paint or header paint?

I used black tractor paint on my hotside parts, and if it were me, I would wrap those exhaust manifolds, and wrap them tight. It will create more heat then you realize and IATs will definitely suffer. So paint them, wrap them, and get maybe even a toggle switch for your high e fan setting if you are sitting at a light.

Thanks David, will do

How much has building the hot pipes cost you if you dont mind me asking?

I wonder if turning the turbo a little, or possibly moving it lower, would make taking the crossover lower than the charge pipe easier?

[o2camaross]

all my pipes including the hot pipe, downpipe and cold pipe was $200 to my door. That doesnt include the merge or the flange. I cant drop it any more bc of the frame rail

Told you'd I jumping in man. Definitely want to see when you put 850 to the wheels. Will the Th400 hold it?

[o2camaross]

Lol we will see I guess. Itll be after I get the meth kit so it may be a little while, Im working on getting a house right now. Ian, just watch the video
