I have Trick hot parts with a 3.5" down pipe, same turbo as before, 4" exhaust, im between changing the 38mm waste gate for a 44mm dont know yet. Either way im sure it will do work.

As far as the garage. I have a 40x40 metal building in the back yard with 15 ft side walls. So I can eventually get a lift in there. It is nice to have, but it always seems family wants to store some **** in it.

The new escalade feels really really strong on 10#s. I put a converter in it that was suppose to be a 28-3k stall but ended up being about a 4500 stall. The transmission doesnt like that with all the weight of the escalade. I already went through 1 tranny and exploded 1 transfer case. Nobody makes any parts to beef either one of those components up so Im kinda in a holding patern as far as turning boost up or any of that, so with that being said i dont have enough ***** to take it to the track and launch off the 2 step and get a good time out of it. But its fun and feels good on the street. I thought the Trick kit used the stock manifold on the driver side, you are not...... whats going on over there????? You dont happen to still have the livernois kit laying around do you????

That was an old picture. The Livernoise kit is gone, and there is a stock manifold over there.

It is a nice shop. Mike even got the name of the builder and was very nicely priced for a well build shop.
Driverside is stock manifold on the single kits.
So whens the truck coming up here, gots to make some room..
