And btw that's not the reason why I started this thread. It was just to get some reactions to the kit and every reaction I got for it was positive.

Hey guys, guess what? I made my own brake booster T using copper fittings from Ace Hardware. Where is my infraction? Someone better start cleaning up all those ebay turbo kits including the on3 kits, I'm pretty sure they aren't a sponsor.

You are right, the wastegate is not shown in the pics but it is there. It is located just below the turbo flange right after the merge. It sits just in front of the power steering pump.

As far as cooling goes I have no issues. I have a 180 stat and the temps never go above 190.

I have been getting a lot of requests for info on the builder of my kit. Up until recently I havent been able to say who it was but he is now working at Straightline performance so the mods cant give me any bs anymore about nonsponsor soliciting ![Engarde](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies3/engarde.gif)
This kit was built by TurboJoe@Straightline. Joe is a stand up guy and the quality of his work has only gotten better! This kit was one of his early ones and was more a prototype. I have personally seen a few of his newer kits and they are absolutely amazing! Kinda makes me want to have him re-do mine... A quick search will show pictures of his newer kits.
