Man, looks outstanding! One word on those T-bolt clamps on the coolant pipes. I tried those and couldn't get them to stop leaking due to the fact that you don't have complete 360 degree tension on the clamp. I like these. Have you seen them?

I took all of my t-bolt clamps off the car and used these and they are wonderful. No boost leaks and no more bending intercooler pipes with the t-bolt camps either.

Thanks guys. Steve thanks for the advice. I'll try the ones I have on and see how they hold up, but will definitely keep your suggestion in mind as a backup option.
Update:
I had Tim at the Powder Pro media blast and powdercoat my bumper/headlight bracket in matte black (2 coats). Same finish as we did on some other various parts. Looks incredible, much nicer finish than the crappy OEM e-coating. Thanks Tim!

Well my new 6766 imploded after 200 miles so car is back at the shop and turbo sent back to Precision. I bought the turbo from a member (1a1) and he has been more than gracious in helping me get the problem fixed. I'm hoping precision will warranty but they aren't known for the best customer service so we'll see. My job right now isn't going the greatest so slight possibility that I might have to list car for sale. Of course I'd probably lose my but on it so that's last resort.
