Default Solowtc turbo build

Sorry for the iphone pics; will take better pics this weekend; since this picture I cleaned up the ptuning vacuum block and mounted it correctly; the only differences with the kit is I went with a aem air filter rather than the greddy supplied filter and also I'm using the ptuning intercooler; fitting it to the greddy kit I would give a 95% having the samco silicone couplers that are a bit longer than the greddy couplers came in handy since the intercooler is 2 inches shorter left to right. I'm running oil pressure, boost, and AFR aem gauges. I haven't got to Dyno or tune it yet since my ptuning exhaust is hanging too low; it was resting on the center of the mustang Dyno when he dropped my car onto the rollers hoping to get tuned next week. The management is Emanage ultimate; and was already tuned to the last owner of the kit but he had a 2.5 exhaust and I want to get retuned to the ptuning 3 inch. This is my first time being boosted and I'm already addicted; this is my daily driver though so the 8.5psi of the greddy kit is enough for me. Let me know what you think or if you have any questions!

Did you fix the exhaust (hanging low)? I know I put mine on upside down the first time and it hung low until I corrected it by hanging it the right way.

Which part did you hang upside down?
My car is pretty low but the axel back section is hanging so low that I'm hitting the markers on the street; it's ridiculous.
