Thats the project car I've had at my house and will be here till september which it WILL be done. So far heads/block are ready and some extra mods.

that 3 inch exhaust sounds interesting.. Little too big? The most i would go is 2.75 inch... But I like how your ignoring that back pressure myth... Why not a dual setup?

Well its his car I've had 3inch on my car for almost a year now I run it daily granted I don't have serious torque till about 40mph (auto car with bad RPM gauge) but after that point for me I pull like a raped ape.

As for duals I will be going that way sorta with my new rear bumper (andy auto sport) so I will have a tip on each side and a muffler where the cat would be and just piping back.

The 3inch for him is more for FI if someone does it better we have a GREAT idea but its really risky to the turbo so we are kinda iffy on it. But 2.5 is what he wants for daily NA or 3inch with SC/turbo(twins) or 4inch with Turbo (single

I got a video of my car with 2.5 and then with 3inch sounds diff haha

This looks like it is going to be a pretty sweet setup . . .did someone say SC?

I did, but after the info you gave me with the headers.. hard to decide :p

Since you told me I cannot use the 3.5L crank in my 3.2L block, I will have to build something very similar to this.
Any pics/ tech data for the intake?
I will also be using Type II heads. . . .

canook2u what are you exactly doing? If your doing this exact build you will need to make the intake manifold wider along with the coolant passage. to make it even work. We have completely done a custom intake manifold and are running currently a borg warner turbo (forget the model) and soon to be on a standalone EMS to control everything.
