Dam, she's gonna be a BEAST! Can't wait!

It looks great!

Just some questions: Why remain catted? Why swap out the Brembos? And why get the BBS package if he is swapping out rims?

I take it that this is the first 08 with a 30r? Nice.

Then why upgrade the turbo? Are you just saying so that it doesn't smell like gas, increasing his risk of getting pulled over?

I don't see how upgrading the turbo and using a catalytic converter are related. I'm saying if you drive on the street, you should be running a cat.

Rootus, for the sake of the enviroment or what?

Oh well, back on topic, nice build. But why keep the dual exhaust setup?
