Right now its just open which sketches me out cuz i dont want anything flying into my turbo. Yeah Waynes looking into making one for me but its a tight space so we're not sure yet. I have the v1 manifold I believe. Yup thats what I read!! I heard SRT just stopped responding to everyone and they were really backed up on orders and just closed up shop. I tried calling them and emailing everything is disconnected.
Cool build! I had Potenza re760s for a while, good tire! I see you're running the NKG 8's. Eventually when you change plugs, I suggest going for the BKR9EIX's gapped to .018 as the 8's are just one step from the stock heat range 7 plugs. Not a big deal, but important for your tuner to know. Although I'm sure Vit has talked about it. And damn man, lemme see that Flossy knob!! I met the owner of flossy a long time ago. He had the purple NSX!

I understand your paranoia, I wouldn't run an open turbo - just my .02. It's important to keep the system clean. Dust, pebbles, water, oh jeez the damage that can happen. That's mostly dependent on the type of conditions you're driving in though. I remember the V1 manifold - people gave SRT so much crap for how it looked, but it made good power! People called it the 'Mona Lisa' of manifolds. "What's up Mona!"

Crazy that SRT just up and left. Hopefully they're closing doors to catch up on work, though I doubt it. Sometimes the big guys are the ones in more debt. Food for thought... Anyways, IIRC the first gen intake was similar to the Full Race intake for the 8th gens on their first gen kits. Look into that, might help you and Wayne.

Cheers mate! Welcome to the community! Looking forward to more pictures and stuff
