Sokudo, do you have pics of the turbo and manifold outside of the car? or even just pics of the HPI manifold?

What is the price on the HPI manifold? and lastly, how much can you get the non-BB KAI's for?

Thanx

as far as hitting the car it depends on many different things, position, what manifold you use and stuff. i am using an HPI manifold.

sokudo ,

What size is the down Pipe that comes with the T51 R KAI ? I need to get one made .. I bought a T51 but I didnīt buy the kit.

. wonder if I can just buy the DP straight from HKS ..or you for that matter ???

sokudo & Others,

How can I polish my T51 (....and not get sand paper type grit inside of it ..ouch !)

I was thinking that while itīs out of the car, I could make it a little pretty .. ..or should I just leave it alone and be happy before I do some damage ??

Canīt you just tape off the openings and rub it down with something until itīs smooth ???

Ahhhh ..that sounds easy enough..

Did you use a dremel tool or just elbow grease and coarse to fine grit sandpaper ...lots of it ??
