It's actually pretty well put together. What looks like tape and shoestring is really header wrap on the charge pipes to keep them from getting to hot from the manifold.

How has it all been workin' out for you Dusty?

Let me know when you want your ecu chipped!

Bump for junkyard setups

A friend of mine has a really really janky azz junkyard setup that broke 14.7 on shitty street tires in a single slam non-v on 5lbs.
