Love the build. I installed the SpeedHut gauges in my Z. I love them too.

Not sure if I would be able to part ways with the amount work gone into it!

Tackled the exhaust this week. Got it up on a buddy's lift and worked for about 20 hours to get this fabbed up, lots of work!




The setup is as follows:

JTR 1-3/4" headers
3" Y-Pipe into a vibrant merge into 3.5"
Borla XR1 3.5"
Then at the end there will be an Apexi muffler

Here is the progress so far



Here is Luis the welding Guru at work:







That was about all we had time to complete. Hopefully next weekend we can knock out the muffler tail section. Goal is to make it less than 103db at 50 ft, which is what most tracks require.
