that manifold is stunning. any reason you went with a bottom mount? for cooling purposes since its closer to the under carriage is my only guess.

i went with low mount simply to be different. i think thats what seperates all the cars. its pretty uncommon to see a large frame turbo down low on any car really.

WOW! I absolutely love this car. What size tires and size wheels are you running? 18x9.5 +12/18x10.5 +12?

that a real vertex kit.... or knock off... Im debating ordering a knock off for mine... Ive destryed my lip so many times from raccoons. Its beyond saving now so either new lip or going a full bumper, just worried about fitment
