Saturday I got back on the driver quarter and outer tub. To get the rear part done first I needed to address the quarter that didn't line up right because of the wide body mod. I had to pie cut the quarter to fix the gap.





With the out of the way I was able to finish up the outer tub.



Since thats the main part I had planned for the day I was able to also check fitment of the supercharger tank that I've been tinkering with. The fitment was good so I'll get the back welded up and get the fittings welded in and check one more item off the list.



I also picked up a 5th gen hood vent to see how it will fit. I like the more forward option and it will clean the supercharger this way as well.



The rest of the afternoon I played with ideas for exhaust layout. I decided to run a Borla muffler even though its only 2.5" and I'm running 3" all the way back. The plan is for it to be quiet when normal driving and not drive me nuts with drone. Its an X style muffler and I'll run the exhaust in from each end and out the opposite side in a cross flow setup. I'm not to worried about it messing with the flow of thing as I'll also have vacuum actuated bypass valves. Since I went with this setup and with the trans cooler in the back it made me have to change from exhaust center under the tail lights to a center exhaust. It will still blend very well into the rear defuser.
