Sorry about your friend. I've lost a few friends and immediate family in the past couple years. It's tough..

Holy Crap, that's an intense build. That manifold to say the least amongst all the other parts is just a beauty.

I like the cold air intake. Too many just have an open filter under hood. The only thing I do not like is the wastegate and pipeing surrounding the compressor housing outlet. Too late to easily change. I would at least fashion a heat sheild between them.

Awesome build, it almost doesn't belong on here, the work is almost too good. The manifold is super sick. Sorry to hear about your friend, I lost a friend about 6 months ago and it still sucks. I am definitely in for this build.
