BOOST

Finished our turbo Vegas a while back but have been so caught up in other projects I never got a chance to show it off on here. What do you guys think?
Here it is in it's final stages:

The bike is a blast to ride and builds boost so fast it makes 1psi at 1100rpm. Running 7psi right now with a small fan on the intercooler under the tank which kicks on at 2psi via a hobbs switch at the back of the air box. All the pipes are ceramic coated black as well as the turbo head shield and the charge tube, oil cooler, and air box are all powder coated black. Pretty slick setup. Almost hard to tell it's turbo until you get up close to it, almost... I also have a set of polished pipes, as well as a polished turbo head shield and charge tube that I may put on at some point to see what it's like.
Another pic for good measure:
