Is that a 4" inlet? Looks kinda small comparing it to the outlet. My 60-1 looks a little bigger. Other than that, have fun, and be careful my back end like to swing out pretty easily.

I think that was 2500 bling bling.

The inlet is 4 1/2 I believe...I wanted a little less turbo lag

That's not a hybrid is it? I've never been very good with the turbo's as far as identifying them/understanding them much. What's the need for the custom manifold? I've got so many questions, and not much understanding!

No thats a real deal 60-1.

You can buy pre-made manifolds for the turbo...but Don Marvel told me that his custom manifold flows way better than the aftermarket manifolds out there. Plus it was about the same price.

I didn't take any pics of the Tial Wastegate...sorry.

I will be sure to post pic's of it when its all installed!

Haltech is going on soon...so I won't be boosting over 6-7 psi until I get the haltech

Ahh, I figured that since that housing(I believe?) looked pretty damn big compared to the stock Which thusly explains the aftermarket manifold since it won't bolt to the stock! Alright, making sense now! Is that outlet on the bottom of the manifold for the wastegate, or am I totally off?

The overall setup is actually cheaper than buying a kit and this is including installation.

The kits are nice...but in my opinion way over prices. The amount I paid for all of this is way cheaper than a kit and has a way better turbo.
