Pretty much sums up my life with all those right now lol
I need to figure out how to build a muffler to fit under the car and keep it quiet enough. It's going to be a challenge for sure to get it down to 93dB or whatever ridiculous number it is.
I know, I always forget to update this one lol hopefully I can shred MRLS. First track will probably be thunderhill or Sonoma to be honest, that way I can start working the kinks out if it.... Or knock the wall down lol

Very true, the first time I fired it off was without my cross over pipe to the turbo, just open headers. It was so loud, especially at 11 pm on a Wednesday lol I'm sure my neighbors love me. It's really not that bad at idle, but once you open up the throttle, and I'm going to quote Vlad on this, "the gates of hell opening up." lol my plan is to tuck a 3.5" oval pipe under the car and turn it out towards the passenger side. Once I get some piping it should quiet it down even more. Right now it's just a 4" 90 right off the turbo. If I don't have to build a muffler that would be really nice

Well... It's just the room that I had to work with. It'll probably change later when the whole front clip gets cut off and tube chassis'd. It'll work, but it just won't be as efficient. I gave up flow for the size of the core

I want to put a 1000 to the wheels, then turn it down to 600-700. Gonna throw all the boost at this junkyard motor to see if I can get those 4 digit numbers. I figure with 600-700hp when I wrap it around a tree I'll definitely die on impact
