    Thats what i thought, Its just for looks and sound. Just like those blow off valve things you can get for any car or truck. JK man i wish i can do something like that for my truck. Keep it up and cant wait for a video of it running.

Someone on customtacos just made 274 hp stock internals @ 8psi. That's a beast of a turbo to make that hp at 8psi. Awesome build keep updated with pics! :waytogo:

    I have no clue if it is or not lol I guess we'll find out eventually. I assume as long as it's not consealed im good... Not to mention it isn't a working gun anymore.

    Welp, I adjusted the suspension some more. I'm going to have to build a whole new front cross member seeing as it's sitting on the ground now lol But here's her new stance.

    cool shifter, im all for one off shifters and acc. old skool.. BUT i would def. put your hands on the steering wheel or behind your head if you get pulled over, and tell them why ASAP because they will draw on you and drag you out violently if they think you just got a gun chilling(what it would look like with shift boot or something hiding the open hole and shifter) safer for them to react first and ask later ya'know. my conscience kept telling me to say something,even if not needed.. lookin good :waytogo:
