Killer install two questions... What upper intake is that, almost looked like a super charger to me... And also, the intake tube, is it kinked as it makes it 90 degree turn or just appear that way in the photo... if it is infact kinked would it hurt performance at all?

I just want to take the time to thank Nick again for the excellent job he did on my truck. This has been a long journey with many ups and downs. Successfully completeing both kits rpcasters and now the turbo project and seeing great results. I am very happy. Nick helped improve my rpcaster kit buy building an intercooler setup that worked great. I couldn't be happier with the results of the turbo project too and his tunning. I will be going to the dyno to see what kind of numbers this thing is putting to the ground next wednesday. So i will let everyone know the results :) Now that i do have the turbo on I do have a complete kit of rpcasters setup for sale and a Zex nitrous wet kit 75 shot with bottle. If anyone is interested you can pm me. Thanks again everyone and Nick. You are the man!
