Thank you, its mostly a wastegate dump but i am running dual Vibrant mufflers. Sounds quiet until the wastegate opens lol. I really need to recirculate it back into the exhaust because its burning the paint off of the area the dump tube is facing.
Hey, thanks Steve. Yes, your right and i am definately on it. O.L.T is definately the man and he should definately change his name to Mr. D.I.Y. I have read a few of his threads and have the LED bulb sizes for the backlighting but dont know if i want to tackle the needles or send it off. I am going to read a few more of his threads tonight.
Side note: I also need my climate control screen fixed as well.

Progress:
50mm over fenders fitted just need a little more massaging. The body lines have a few gaps to clean up but i will get to it. 97+ tails sideskirts and front bumper fitted. A few other things but its coming along slowly. The first picture shows what a group of pot holes did to my tire.
