This truck is about to be back on the ground. Parts like the turbo had gotten delayed. Good thing we stopped until it got here. There is a little difference between the MP and the tnetics units would have throan the look off.
If you do not have the tubing bead rolled or bead welded on the ends it will more then likely fail and come apart. We bead roll both ends off each pc of tubing.
50mm blow off.
3.5 tube once we make the turn.
reinstall the sensor so to keep in mounted and looking factory.
going to paint the IC tubes in the frount black. Again a factor type look, and it helps the IC standout a little better. You can see the pilot hole we drilled so to relcoate the temp sensor that was in the area.
went ahead and painted the grill supports. These are needed to help support the grill using its factory clips. Pass inlet tube isnot the correct one so it looks off in this pic.
