I have to look closer lol, and reason for the log mani over a tubular?

great question... i used to have the full greddy kit on this car and basically when i built this new setup 2 years ago i just needed enough power to run the 11.50 index class and this intercooler was enough for that, even though its not the most efficient way.

Since for this season i'm still gonna run the 11.50 index class, no need to upgrade, but for next season i'm looking to have a completely different turbo setup all together.

P2R hooked me up with this manifold... at the time i wanted something in a similar location to the greddy cast log manifold i had so i wouldn't have to do much re-routing of IC piping, which i still ending up having to do.

Regardless, its just a mild turbo setup that will be changing next year :lildevil:

Ok more updates... She is all back together, for the most part, and running. Took her around the block a couple times to make sure everything is ok.

All gauges are hooked up and working...
