Impressive build! The only thing that concerns me about a twin turbo setup is the filter location. Being a DD I would be scared to drive it on the heavy rain days. Anyway to relocate the filters closer up under the hood or is this really not a big concern?

They are above the center line of the wheels so you would have to be flooding the car to have an issue. That being said they have a cold air option that puts the filters up in the fenders. Shop car has been driven through monsoon rains, foot deep puddles/etc and filters have never been an issue.

Not a concern what so ever and I have driven through some extreme down pours with puddles everywhere over the past 2 x months. When I got home I checked the filter area and no moisture.

I thought about changing my gears in my 2ss to 3:91 but didnt know if it would make it too violent driving around on the street making 8-900 hp

FI cars like to be in boost. 3.91 would be big overkill even on a 600whp build. 3.45 or 3.70 would be best I'd bet. I know more gear gets the heavy car moving...but staying in boost moves you down the track. I like 3.70s personally.

I have 3.89 gears in my car and I like them with my Whipple.
