[QUOTE="prostkr, post: 10753093, member: 48476"] All the piping is small. The primary's on the headers are small then they go into cheap collectors. This kit has 500 miles on it and one header has had to be repaired for a split collector already. Then after the collectors they neck the piping down to 2 1/4" to the turbo. Heck ford put 2 1/2 on these cars stock. The down pipe is even funnier its a 3'" outlet necked down to 2 3/4 then swedged back up to 2- 2" pipes. Ball and socket flanges in spots where v bands should be ect. All in all for the money the parts are decent, but they just didn't plan it out well. They managed to use 5' of pipe to snake around stuff when a simple 2' long pipe and less fittings could have been used. There are a ton of restrictions built into this kit that should not be there. On the dyno this car wont carry out the power, at 5000 rpms it falls flat on its face. It will carry it out 5-600 rpms farther with the cut out open leading me to believe its choked off. I'm going to make a quick open dump right off the turbo and see if it likes that better to start. Id get with Turbo vnm and look at Hellion pricing. [/QUOTE]
