Thanks PE, we're only going with a couple hundred on the nos, but overall, we'll have twice the power we did before.

We ran a few pieces into powder coating...all were done in an HPC polished ceramic. The down tubes needed to be more heat resistant since they were so close to the headers, and we just wanted the other parts to match.

We were able to get color on the interior today (BIG THANKS to scotts62)...went with a metallic grey.
