I looked through all 34 pages of this and was amazed, this is one insane project and it seems that youre relentless prusuit of perfection has no price! After all the mad fabrication, why not get them to fabricate you a nice sheet metal intake manifold?

Update:

1)The compressor housings have been removed, and are at the polisher's now...Expect them back tomorrowThis polisher is a friend of mine, and his work is so good, that even Frank was impressed!! The housings should come back looking like mirrors...

2)The Water injection is about to ship to me, and baby, will it increase efficiency...

3)3 55mm gauges are in, and will be heading over to Ultimate Audio in the next day or so for the custom center console.

4)The upper intake is coming off tomorrow for the "custom" work.

More to come...

You're gonna love Stage II...So am I... Engine swap (Built 1UZFE), tranny swap, engine management, custom drive shaft, custom forged rods, custom forged pistons, new buckets, shims, mains, etc...

9 second SC300, huh? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...
