The oil injector lines and nozzles have been removed,
The V-band flange on the top part of the down-pipe has been tacked on,

Post 2 and 3 have updated pics of the exhaust manifold. This has to be the best custom exhaust manifold for the Renesis on the forum. Go drool.

Cost depends on what you want done. It would be best to contact Turblown directly.. I don't want to misquote the costs.

Now something totally unrelated to the build. If anyone can tell me the type and model of car, I'll be impressed.

The mirrors are not correct for a Testarossa. Also the hood and fenders form 1 piece. This car will come to me...

Damn you're right....and it doesn't have the side gills.

At least I knew it was a Ferrari...the red paint gave it away.

The lack of hood, single wiper and rear fenders should have been a dead giveaway for me.
