That turbo exhaust manifold is tight!

Nice open bends to keep the exhaust velocity up and equal lenght runners to keep the exhaust pulses timed properly

Very impressive!

The rest is a little too bling for my tastes but it looks like it has the goods to go real fast so i'm not bitching.

Some nice cars in the article. Except the part where it says most import owners don't care about road racing.
