Little progress today. I should have piping/Waste gates/wrapped by Sunday. There is still quite a bit to do though.

This is going to fly! Nice work.

Maybe move the air filters up front to get some fresh cold air vs. behind the radiator... Free HP.

I thought about doing that but was under the impression that any bends/piping in between the filter and turbo kills massive amounts of power. With that said I think I'm going to fab up some "scoops" to direct air under the car up and in front of the filters

Anyone see an issue with my wastegate dump pipes? I originally thought it would be ok but im starting to second guess it. I think I have enough room on the driver side for a small flex pipe may 3"? but the passenger side does not have any strait pieces at all.. Also what is the shortest flex pipe they sell? I haven't seen many options in 1.5"

Wast Gate placement is on the money!

Im glad you think so. I got a really good deal on some smaller gates (38mm) and figured with the right placement they may work for me. Im hoping ill be ok without flex pipe on them.

I was able to get quite a bit done this weekend. I had to relocate the intercooler to clearance the hood and get a 2 3/4" gap in between it and the radiator. I got some intercooler piping done as well.

The fact that the front end comes to a point has forced me to mount everything low in the engine bay. I didn't want a small intercooler so I'm paying for it in lack of ground clearance. I'm going to have to make a skid plate of some sort to protect all this stuff. Things are slow going but it's coming along nicely I'd say.

I have the previous owners hotside that he made when he owned the car. I'm having 2nd thoughts on it now.

That merge pipe on the passenger side is a little rough looking. He should have tried to make it flow a bit more. What material are they?
