    Here are some pics with the frame back under it to check ride height...I will post newer pics this week but this gives you the idea...Here are the stainless turbo headers that I will be using for the twin T3/T4 Turbos. I just mocked them up on a motor to see where the outlets are going to dump. I was worried about the accessoris but decided to cut off the flange and weld on a V-Band style clamp so i can rotate the turbos if needed...

    What kind of pics are you looking for??? The frame is still off the car I can take pics of the bag set up? I do plan on taking the frame back apart because I want to change the color so I can take pics of the mounts. This will be my third twin turbo set-up and the second with electronic fuel injection. I will never go back to blowers or nitrous... Turbos are efficient easy horspower and drive ability is excellent...( And only after Hours,days, weeks of tuning:banghead3: ) . Later Jim
