    its full-race.

    so that means it will probably be better than what you see in the picture

    but yes, definately very interested in this build! ive been trying to decide for the longest time wether to go big single twin scroll or run twins.

    are you going for the response manifold? or the top end one?

      Yeah I order it today and they start building it. I was especially interested in them since they flow test everything before they ship it out, which is stellar. Only downside is it will take 4-6 weeks for them to make the manifold I decided to go with the response manifold, but I may talk with them a bit more today when ordering to go over what the differences are exactly and what might be best for my setup.

        Update!

        Alrighty so I ordered the Manifold so they are starting to build that now, I went with the response manifold as they have a customer in australia using it running around 1000HP and has very quick spooling, so I think it will do what I am looking for sucks I have to wait so long, but I guess it will make it even more awesome when it does get here!

        Also, here in Saskatoon there is an annual "Cruise Weekend" going on this weekend. Basically they block off the main downtown area and its full of old/new cars and lots of stereo's and such, from 8AM to 8PM. I somehow managed to get my car into the show, so hopefully I get lots of good pictures


        after this weekend I think I am doing one last video for a friend, then its time to start ripping the car apart! (hood, front bumper) and start getting to work on pulling them turbo's off.

              So yeah was out driving the other night and car started steaming, not sure what happened yet for sure but its obviously the rad. I don't know if its a cracked line or the actual rad itself, as when its sitting it doesnt drain completely just a bit, so who knows might be ordering a new rad with all these new parts as well?

              I used Meguiar's Vinyl and rubber cleaner, worked very good.

                Check the rad overflow if it happens again. Could be the water pump going for a ****.

                  when it happened the first time the overflow didnt have much in it, so i put some in there for the quick trip home. This morning i checked the overflow and it was still at the full line from where i put it the other day, and it only took about 3/4 of a bottle of water for the rad to be full again.. anyone know what this could mean? may a crack in the top half of the rad?

                          not sure yet honestly, i think theres a crack in the top half of the rad though from whats happening with the fluid and how its only draining the top bit of it. There is only 1 bolt left holding the fan shroud onto the rad and once that is off I can pull out the rad and test it out, so I guess its time to order a new rad eh? :-P

                            Yeah I guess it is! Hopefully those aren't expensive....

                              look on the bright side, you get a bright shiny new rad that'll look even better in the engine bay.

                                Yeah that is true, I want to take off the FMIC and get that all cleaned up too. I will have to look into switching to electric fans too.

                                Hmm, well since everything else on the car is expensive i have a feeling this one will be too.
