Well, i decided to sell my Silver 62 and build these twins. I bought the hotpipe, coldpipe, and the 3B 27cm from gwhammy. The rest i built. The good thing is, after selling my turbo, intake, and downpipe for a total of around 1600, i broke even! and thats with buying a brand new 5" exhaust. its like driving a new truck. I can build 30+ psi in 3rd gear (6-speed) vs. less than 10psi with the 62. my pop-offs open around 48-50psi and my clutch slips about 50% of the time. i dont have a drive pressure gauge yet either so i dont know what it is. i tuned the HE to ~27psi so anything after that is the 3B. This truck drives like a dream, and i haven't seen over 1300* with the box turned up, but that was only up to about 80mph. videos are at the end.

They look great. How long did it take to Fab up your piping? I got a hx40 ht3b set up I am slowing putting together and was just looking for some input.
 
well i didnt have to fab my cold or hot pipe, but it didnt take too long to fab the intercooler pipe either. total work hours, including polishing my turbo and intake horn, and welding my exhaust was probably around 50hrs. +/- a few.
