51RJZ Posted January 20, 2014 Author Report Posted January 20, 2014 I've been playing with another toy of late but found some time for the wagon :) been fitting up all the front end to see how it all looks and fits. next week it will be getting my new custom exhaust manifold made, gate mounted and 4" dump pipe. can't wait to have my first drive.

51RJZ Posted February 13, 2014 Author Report Posted February 13, 2014 A little bit more progress with the wagon. steam pipe manifold, 4" dump pipe made. mounted my new external gate off the rear housing off the turbo and screamer pipe done. To make it fit better we modified the top and bottom water hoses to bring the turbo forward enough to fit a 4" dump pipe in. Quote
