. all the charge piping looks to be 2.5", except for the one 3" piece that goes to the throttle body, which then has to be reduced to 2.5" anyway. it seems as if its only there to fool people at first glance that all of the charge piping is 3". the only other possible reason i can think of is that the bov you are using is too big to mount on to 2.5" piping.


2. the dump tube should have a bracket welded on to fasten it to the downpipe. after about 6 months of driving, my dump tube broke off right at the flange because of how long it was, combined with all of the vibration.
Damn Brett....

Give them a chance, this is round one for them and that being said I think they have done quite well for there "debut". It takes time to perfect a design but regardless you have to start somewhere.

Props

Nice! That's so funny, because that mani looks so similar to one of todds, you got tuned the same place I did, you got about the same numbers I did at thesame psi, and our graphs look really similar!

That's very good power.. you could get even more from a straight-through 3" muffler. But obviously you had other priorities in mind.. great job.

straight through would have probably been more cost effective too, less bends + less material...
