yes the up and down pipe are sort of under the k member for now, one of our friends has a LT1 (runs 128 mph traps on STOCK internals) which has it also ran like that and he doesn't have too much problem, people don't undnerstand how the suspention reacts around the kmember, also ground clearance is only reduced about an inch and a half, so its not that bad. Eventually we will improve this part of the design but for ease of fabrication and price, its the easy way to go for now.

The car was finished this weekend although it ran into some problems we are looking into it.... we'll keep you informed.

tiago you cant tell me if something hits the pipe its not gonna mess it up it may not the first time and maybe not till its something big

going over a speedbump side ways would get real close i bet (the way low cars go over speed bumbs) hitting something in the road could mess it up to im just letting people know so when the **** happens they cant say no one every told them

jason, u are not thinking about the suspention geometry like I said, ,the pipe moves up and down along with the k member along with the body of the car when u go over a bump. Our ground clearancee is quite good. If it was to bottom out it would just flatten the pipe, no damage further then that, turbo would be just fine.

The car is finished, we will post pics soon.
