    You need to tape some LEDs around the inlet to light that thing up.

    White. If you do blue or red, you can't have it on when driving.

    You need a "JET INTAKE" sticker to go next to the scoop that points at the turbo too.

    You probably could have pointed that forward and run an intake on it I think. I know you are talking blow though, but depending on how that goes looks like there is room for a maf housing and shorter filter in front.

    Yeah he done that with a purpose just in case. I'm about 99 percent positive I can get blow thru to work. I have a plan of attack that involves using 2 mafs.

    I'll let you know as soon as everything is done. It's still a pretty good chunk of time away before it's road ready.

    yeah it's not. Don't want to over complicate an already tight ass fab job.

    Plus want the top end of the open scroll. I may Rev this thing out to 8500rpms.

    Usually you match a twin scroll with larger AR for exactly that reason. Cake + eat it, etc.

    Yep, understandable. Not knocking your choice by any means, just clarifying.

    LOL patience it'll be revealed soon enough. I really have no choice to make it work b/c I'm having the FMIC fabbed for it.

    Is there a concern with having that much heat right on top of the TMM? Or do you plan to switch to a solid one?

    Radiant heat shouldn't be that big of an issue, esp with gold foil, ceramic coatings and the like.
