i do on my old computer, but it crashed so i will check if i can find pics i uploaded somewhere or something
if not, i plan on taking the cross over section of next weekend to clean up a few things and i can take some better pics for you
I am using stock truck manifolds flipped backwards, works great and is very easy to work with. Have 2.25" v-bands welded off of the truck manifolds for easy install/ reinstall( complete turbo kit can be taken off in 20minutes) my cross over is made up of 2.25" stainless steel piping to try and make spooling as quick as possible

i can get some pics of my oiling system tomorrow
here is the turbo specs
Compressor Size: Inlet = 4 3/16", Inducer = 68.7MM, Exducer = 97.8 MM, Trim = 69,A/R = 0.66, Intake (ID / OD) = 2.25" / 3.25"
Turbine: Outlet = 4", Turbo flange = T4, Downpipe flange = 3.5" V-band, Inducer = 87.4 MM, Exducer = 77 MM,Trim = 92, A/R = 1.05
This car should really come alive once i put the new custom ground cam and the ported heads on, hoping to get full boost by 3000 rpms and make 630ish on 6psi, hopefully 700 wheel on 9-10psi

Havent run the same turbo on the same car so i wouldnt know
Pre-boost power isnt horrible, but once i get the new cam setup in i am expecting it to really wake up. It makes 1.5-2psi by 2200 rpms so its really not that sluggish, it spools very fast in my opinion
