That's it? I'm guessing you're still in the middle of this project. Otherwise, you need to post more pics, STAT

Lots of top quality fab here. Kudos for having the ***** to take on a project like this. I know I wouldn't trust my guys with material that expensive.

Man this is awesome. I can't wait to read how it holds up to the heat, since I was under the impression that inconel was the only lighter weight option for something like this.

Also, will there be pics of the totally finished pieces?

what car is this for? I guess the guy has no budget.

Fitment on manifold is SPOT on man, that takes a good eye and time.

Ti sure welds a lot differently it seems by the looks. Was this just to shake up the monotony a bit?
