If you do the guesstimate math and multiply it by 1.57, it comes to a 6.2. That math works real good alot of the time. Very beautiful car.

that **** is bad ***. No worm clamps there lol.

speaking of the worm clamp, yeah right, but last night i ran a 10 with a worm clamp on my turbo outlet, it held 32 psi, when i got my slip i laughed out loud at my worm clamp holding up.

AEM ProRWD car used worm clamps

good worm clamps, beaded pipes, clean connections = no problems

you dont need t bolt clamps, t bolts are actually bad in the sense that ppl over tighten them and tear the silicon and the coupler ends up failing
