and think that should be the price.
I've been welding aluminum for quite a while and I can never get that perfect look. My welds are functional but never that pretty. Wish you lived in TO, I'd drop by for a few lessons. LOL
What's the name brand of the welder? Duty cycle?

Well, time for an update. I managed to make the 2.75" intercooler piping fit just fine. It actually worked out really well. So this is good news. I ordered a bunch of stuff, so now I'm just waiting for it to arrive. Seems like Precesion turbo is a bit behind as there are many order that have fallen behind. I did get my hands on some Exa pumps as well, they should be here within two weeks.
So basically, everything is done as far as new "desighn" goes. I am hoping to have the large intercooler here mid next week so I can fit all that in and start with the 3" IC piping going to the TB. As you can see I did my best to avoid 90deg bends in the IC piping. Unfotunetly I had to have one just under the driver side header, everything else is 45deg. Should flow very well.
Here are a few pictures of how things are layed out this time around:













Now it is just a matter of duplicating every bend and welding it all together.

I had to change the contrast of my monitor to read the white lettering on the almost white background. Didn't see a lable first time I looked. That is a nice unit for a 240V socket.

The welding isn't bad at all, about one hours worth.
Must be lots of G's in Edmonton. Have you talked to Karma (Sean)? There was another guy at the last Alberta meet, can't recall his s/n though, maybe some others can help. He's the one some guys put the popcharger on in the parking lot.
