excellent. big milestone for a project like that. RAD69's project seemed to take forever!
It helps a lot that you can just walk away and come back later. He didn't have that advantage.

it's a world of fun...
in all actuallity, it's not nearly as hard as my mechanical engineering degree. But the beginning of the semester always sux cuz you feel like there's a $hit load of work, then by the end of the semester you look back and realize that you did Jack $hit and still got B+s and A's... lol.

It's got a huge face, but is only about 1.5" thick... which is perfect for my application. IIRC, the boost loss across it is less than 1 psi, and when pushing 25psi or so (end goal) I don't think that will be too bad

though at the moment that's not easy since I still have the muffler in the middle of my living room and various other parts on the kitchen table. ahhh the life of a bachelor haha
