there must be a shitload of things i forgot...
everything on the car is custom build in our own garage by leon and some made by yours truly.
all tig welded (aluminium, steel and stainless)
nothing is bolt on!

the car with the old setup already was a beast, but this will cause some havoc aswell...

momentarily the car is on stands again, because the car is pissing coolant on boost... we're fixing it now...
