took some doin yeah.. took about an hour..

all that was needed was to provide a rough surface for better adhesion.. so it wasnt as bad as polishing..

im thinking about buildin a spare block.. .20 over with CP pistons and carillo rods.. etc

then slap on a gt35r on a custom mani with external wg..

this setup on a stock block yielded 385awhp on the dyno with 22psi.. would be a nice sleeper...

not completely opened.. still have the stock downpipe..

supposed to be the biggest bottleneck that will yield the most gains when opened..

also still have the restrcitive exhaust mani to contend with.. will do that when i go bt...
