I just went through the entire thread and this car is way cool. I love that you made the intake work.

Are you still planning on running the twin turbo set up?

For now Im going to leave it NA and see how it runs with the 231/236 cam in it and 2 throttle bodies.

I think that is a great idea.

With the intake you have you could do two air boxes and have the illusion of tt set up.

After building syborg and doing twin turbo I will most likely do blowers from this point forward. Much easier plumbing, less under hood heat and much more cost effective.

Time to order my front RS grille kit. What would look better with no front bumper? A billet one or the original one?

I prefer the look of the stock grill over a billet one

My vote is for an original one, unless the billet one is painted/anodized/powdercoated black. You have lots of more modern looking finishes on the car, i.e. all of the carbon, and I think a bright grille would clash with the theme of the car.

Even I'm excited to see your car getting wrapped up!

Stock grille with stainless hardware. Billet grilles look kinda 80s on some rides
