Thanks for replay...

If you build a custom manifold, then must build a new custom downpipe...

So, where is pictures of the downpipe...?

What rear will you be getting with your new 67mm billet? The new 65 or 68 wheel? What A/R?

How was your spool with the pt67h turbo?

Manifold looks great btw...

Very nice man, im in the process of building my second kit, its alot of fun, i really do wish i had access to a TIG. Great work man! Cant wait to see it on the car! Oh, nice choice on the turbo to.

Precision is hands down the best turbo out their!

Seems like you are running a little hot when welding. Good job overall though.
