    Nice, definitely reinforce the stock oil pick-up or get an aftermarket one, it would be a huge shame to lose a motor from such a small part failing.

    Lot of nice parts there, looks like you're sparing no expense. Build it once to last!

    What are you doing for a BOV? We ran one for a while but found that we got more immediate throttle response without it so we blocked off the flange with a blanking plate.

    I'm sure you've seen the latest shiny bits from TiAL...

    I see the external wastegate, but I'm curious about what you're doing for a blow-off/bypass valve or if you plan on running one at all.
