When ya gonna do something about those leaky up-pipes! Lol.

I know mine went from being TIGHT to looking kinda like your drivers-side looks (as best as I can see in yer pic...) after swapping turbos. I guess I wiggled the babies butt just enough to make it leak - dammit. Its costing me 7-8lbs of boost and raised EGT's ALOT! I'm sure MPG has suffered as well.

Fixin' to call Clay and get some ceramic-coated bellowed up-pipes on the way!

up pipes are on the to do list, just need sum extra cash. until then i still have parts laying in the garage to go on. 6.0 ic and tc, external tranny filter, in tank mods. hopefully this will hold my pms over long enough to get saved up for up pipes.

Well, it would be easier to stop if I didn't have Clay on speed dial!
