RC and I both ordered a set of A4's and brackets, I also purchased an extra swatch of the microsuede fabric from them to recover the panel where it has the logo, I'll probably do a custom logo in it's place... they're being installed now.

A few more of the build pics I didnt post the other day.

Heres the new aeromotive intank pump setup with the eleiminator pump. I also have a Weldon being externally mounted for high boost.



Heres a few pictures of the hot side piping coming together. The cold side will run under the hot side, the ovalized pipe is pretty cool.

There are some sick C6 builds finishing up this year that are going to make mine measly 1,000hp look like childs play.

Looks awesome but aren't you worried about the zip-ties melting and the wood catching on fire?

Some updated pics.

Some of the fab work to the rear bumper for the chute mount, I should have taken a photo from below, the mount is wishboned into the rear frame. Also some of the other fab work to support the turbos.







A few more pics with the turbos located on the car. The turbos are not clocked to their permanent position.

TR6060 is already in the car, SW will be hard to beat.

Got love SW's lambo but I like to see a win from RC. A rematch needs to happen. Both cars are heavy hitters.

If i remember right one of the 1500whp UR gallardo runs 100-150mph in 2.8s without shifting and we managed to run several times under 5s 100-150mph at only 17psi + 50 shot,pump gas,2 people and 1 shift with little gt3582s and a 6.0L LS2

so i guess for twin 82mms, a tt gallardo would not be a competitor from a 80mph 3rd gear start race.

but according to vbox view this gt is a real competitorwatch vbox carefully after 150mph...

and here is the video of our 100-150mph 4.6s run
