Ok so here is another update of some fab work in the last few days.

Well I am nearing completion with the exhaust for the 1000whp shop Camaro.

the whole idea with this exhaust was to be invisible from the side profile when viewing the car.

As you can see here I succeeded.



All the weird shapes that went into this exhaust were all measured for volume and efficiency.



No matter what shape you see here on this system it always keeps 3.5" volume.



So now that the front is done its time for the hard part.
We are going to hide the rear section as well.



we are going to put the two mufflers in parallel, with the gas tank in between.

This posed a problem since there are frame rails on each side of the tank.

O well I guess we will just chop the frame out on this 150+k camaro.



Good ol sparky.





Now I just need to grind it all smooth and box it in with 18 gauge plate.
I will do that tomorrow.


Ok now for an update on the turbo system.

I decided to make a cold air intake system for the turbo so it wont suck heat off of the radiator.



It is a K&N cold air intake tube from a chevy truck system.



Fits perfectly. Yes it took me about 3 hours to find an off the shelf tube that fit correctly. This will be included in the kit we will be offering.



Then I finished the intercooler piping, and mounted the huge turbonetics blow off valve.





Then onto the turbonetics racegate.

After a few hours of finding the best location. Here it is. All tacked up. T304 stainless.



Looks like business.



Easy adjustment.





Clears the hood with 2+ inches to spare.



This kit is shaping out to be a great fit for the car. I think it adds some personality as well.



Thats it for now. I will post more pics later.
