You have a nice build going its a lot of work but will pay off. I just recently installed my compound set, and I have to say I love it. Im still in the tuning stages but where it is at now, is a night and day difference compared to my original set up. I have been trying to get the to be efficient with low if any smoke.

So where is the event being held at?
