                  I have never seen collectors like that, do they stay 2 pieces when finished?  How does it seal between the thin plate and the large body?  It would seem like the thin plate would warp badly when you weld the tubes to it.  It looks very cool.

                          It's like the double slip collector from the future. Crazyness.

                          Also concerned why it's stainless.

                          Sch 10 1-1/4 pipe?

                          I'm almost appalled that dude didn't polish those pipes before he made that header haha.

                          Such an amazing build. I can't wait until I can start something of this caliber..

                            Just read through this entire thread. The design and quality are top notch! Who made the adapter board for the ECU?

                              The header can come all apart to be polished.  I may do that....even though you can't really see it on the car.

                              A work contact made the board, just a guy that does electronic stuff.  Pretty neat set up.  The larger terminals which handle higher amperage have different connectors and runs in the board.  Really top notch.  I need to figure out where it will live and then design an aluminum housing for it.

                                        Get myself caught up on where everythings at, and get the wategates/exhaust finished.  Then onto charge piping, intercooler and upper intercooler piping.  Then the intake manifold.

                                        After that button up the suspension, and any other stuff, I need to do, oil cooler, etc.  Then back up to GB for tuning.
