I hope you have better luck with your competition stage 4 clutch then I did. Mine came appart in less then 5000 miles.

Yeah, I didnt want to risk it, so I kept the CC light flywheel and went with the ACT 6 puck setup instead, hence the yellow pressure plate.

Good choice.

Found some time over the weekend to fab/tack the intercooler piping together; piping is 2.5" from turbo to throttle body. I still have the midpipe and exhaust to do (waiting on the mid-muffler) and will wrap the downpipe once finished.

Got the midpipe completed and tacked the rest of the exhaust together. I decided to run the pipe under the rear subframe, which is easier and look much better IMHO. Still need to weld on the exhaust hangers, seam the exhaust and intercooler piping all up, and wrap the downpipe. Exhaust is 3" from the turbo back with a Magnaflow silencer and HKS pan.

Been pretty busy the last few weeks so didn't get as much done as I wanted. Welded up, coated and hung the exhaust; 3" turbo back with single resonator and HKS HiPower muffer; downpipe is wrapped and upper wastegate dump as well. Also, welded up and installed the intercooler pipes (2.5") and front/rear calipers. She's getting there and I'm now focusing on tying the extended harness back into the front fusebox, angling the top of the radiator 1/2-3/4 inch forward and connecting the coolant hoses and other minor bits..

That is a pretty looking engine.
