Thanks! It took a long time for me to get the pipes right. Cut, weld, grind, repeat......

Looks Awesome! I really noticed the difference in mine. Couple hundred degrees. The difference between backing off and keeping in it.

Looks Good.

I installed a 99 Intercooler on my 97 and it seemed to help with the EGT's on towing,......especially with Stage 1 Injectors.

Looks great Ian! You'll like that so much better with the stage ones. You'll be able to use a lot more of the power! You may now notice your 15* suffering on a good tow till you get that upgraded.
