since you are not a supporting member you cant just upload them onto the site. Upload them onto a file hosting site like photobucket , facebook, or w/e else and then link them using [.img] [./img] (without the periods)

Thanks man. I tried to do it in the best way to dissipate heat and also firmly mount the turbo without putting too much stress weight on the manifold. The cooling panel (cowl or whatever) is straight from Begi. It looks alot like the ARC though.

judging by your attempt at bracing it appears to be an OBX model

haha, bingo. its reinforced also. If you really judge the obx garrett gt25 manifolds, they do appear to be free flowing. They just use really thin metal to fabricate them, i dunno why. its actually a pretty nice piece.

Wow congrats on getting that finished so quickly. I remember when you were looking for a T25 still. How much time did you spend on this each day?

Nice car man! I usually don't like body kits, but this one flows pretty nicely!
