So let's hear about and see your cars.

I just drove this up from Florida in October...something I'll never do again.

2003 Infiniti G35. 42k miles and near mint.View attachment 155500View attachment 155501

Very nice.

@ttmott Tom, I only see one waste gate on the system, I thought you needed one for each turbo? Or is that engine < 750hp.

Looks amazing and I can't believe you had Roush build it for you, equally amazing. To say I am jealous doesn't quite cover it. Please post more engine pics when you can so I can live vicariously through you and your engine post's!

Here you go Orlando -
Wrapping up the wastegate installs -

I would hang that in my living room.

(Well, that's if I had any say in what goes in the living room)

Wow! It sounds like you’re kind of…henpecked.

Oh man that is amazing, great work. Looks awesome. Not a bad way to spend 10K+.

I haven't sorted through the threads here but was all the exhaust and turbos mocked up in the engine compartment with the engine and front clip installed?

Mocked up with the radiator but not front clip. Most of the pipe was tack welded for the mockup which verified it can be installed and removed. Then pulled out of the car and welded out on the bench. I'll be picking up the front fenders next week; I had the wheel openings raised one inch to clear the wheels and suspension; that's it for body modifications, all else remains as original including the hood. Oh, except for the tubs. So next is putting the front clip on and size the intercooler and A/C condenser then on to the turbo cold side piping and finishing up the intake manifold.

Infrastructure Bill: "Driving Prevention" Technology Coming To New Cars

Joe Biden signs Infrastructure And Jobs Act into law, mandating drunk driver prevention technology by 2026. Then there's the RIDE Act.

Miraculously, it all fits - Weather was a bit rough so I spent the time getting this fit.

That looks awesome. As someone who made a living welding a couple lifetimes ago, your welds don't look too bad. That thing is going to be a monster!

Welding is a skill much like golf - never good enough. Butt-welding that stainless pipe and getting full penetration with no sugaring is an artform. I struggle, have to walk away, then fix the issue and try again.

My son’s Mustang next to his uncle’s Toyota Tundra. Had to believe the massive size difference.

After working on my '70 Mach 1 for the last several years, I've come to realize I would hate to be in a wreck in that car. I'm pretty sure the front end would wad up like paper if hit by that Toyota.
