That wastegate is open dumped under the passanger side of the car, take a look at that undercar pic and follow where the pipes going! Looks like it comes out right at the passanger wheel well, that's gonna be loud!

Did you have to take any special steps to restrict oil flow when improving upon the oil inlet on the turbo? Is the line the same ID?
ps Every time I see those exhaust manifolds I am amazed by how nice they look, and how frickin huge they are

Its not that hard, just takes more time, which obviously costs more. That dump tube took all of 10 minutes.

It is well accepted and proven that is the least effective place to plumb it into.
Other than that, looks good so far.
I love those Alien auto manifolds btw. Functional works of art.
The fabricators username is Bad2ndGen or something like that. The one he fabbed up on his car is crazy. Also he has one of the nicest fc's on this board.

If money were not an issue almost everything on this car would be different.

The price of methanol.
What is that white coating?

That's not my car, its Comitatus
My 91 does not have ABS, on any case, the turbo sits way up front. My pics should be up soon
