Looks good man, but I think it's going to be a PITA to change your plugs.

Also the crossover tube looks awful close to the frame. When the engine revs, it might come into contact with it.

Progress is good. O2 bungs and everything, looks factory to me. Didn't 00's come with a T6 turbo? Nice work.

There is plenty of room between the frame and the exhaust.. like 1/18 of an inch...

BTW, you guys would love my tape measure I have at work.. It is a "center point" lol

Going to spend some more money tomorrow on what I hope will be the last of what I need. Then more welding this weekend...
