I am just ignorant but is there really that small of space that the "T" must be placed outside the engine bay? I am sure you guys want even length but it looks different. Dump the wastegate out the hood on that one...JK.
Pipe the WG straight down and out.

yeah im running the racing beat holley manifold with an 8 injector set up. no room to run it low on the rx2. The intercooler is being mounted outside, and im thinking of running a honda radiator since there small and thin.

Run the WG straight down and out from both pipes or what. I will post more pics

it looks like it goes all the way but it doesn't the pics do no justice, and the pipes are measured even the pics don't do no justice

Lets see how it mounts with the water pump w/pulley, oil return line , oil feed line and the turbo size you are using.Yes both should go to a WG or WG+s. I personally am having issues with the HKS 50 being to small.Many shops are using to small Tial's .One on each runner.
