Do you think there would be enough wiggle room to fit a gated adapter like that above between the crossover and hotside without having to make mods? I just put my turbo back on a month ago but can't really recall! I guess it would be another 15mm or so.

Nice going Sid. Keep 'em coming.
Never been in a cave with a narrow passage in it eh?

You would have to definitely cut and weld the crossover unless you had a v band then maybe you could just slice the uppipe and re weld to get the clearance.

Patrick, this is like using a smaller blow gun vs large. The velocity using the same pressure is much higher when the outlet size is restricted.

Think of a nozzle on a water hose.

I should have a decent amount of time tomorrow and Sunday to either finish this WG bypass or I may just go ahead and change the motor mount and header and put the twin scroll pipes on. I have been thinking about it all day and I can't decide which to do?

Got an EBC hooked up today and fixed an oil leak (cooler line) before Turkey.
