What do ya'll think?

Ok, ive been up for the past 36 hours straight finishing my turbo kit. I just want to see what all you people think.

Heres the list of parts

Stainless equal length manifold
Candy Blue intercooler piping
3" cold air intake (to turbo)
Turbo xs RFL bov
Polished aluminum alcohol injection canister
3" downpipe
Custom T3 (only 3 of these made! and i have the other 2 )
31" core intercooler

This turbo combination is soo efficient, i see 7 psi of boost at 2300 RPM. And this is not a small turbo, it has a 56 mm compressor wheel in it.

The whole 7 psi thing at 2300 rpm was a little exaggerated. You know how when you start out normally you drag the clutch to get started? Well when i do that, im already in boost. if im doing 3 mph in 1st and roll into it, i have boost before 2300 rpm. Then i hit 7 psi before 3000.

Thanks for the compliments. The pictures really do no justice to the color of the pipes. The pipes look like wet paint on a car. It has sooo much depth that it is insane. If anyone feels like driving down to my shop, ill take you for a ride at 9 psi!
