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.
