Oh duh, thats right youre not in North America. I am not very with it today.

Looks great, why did you choose that location for the wastegate?

@Shawn, I hope to do it in the summer. I'm gathering intake materials and the intercooler at the moment. Than i just need to get some small parts and the sensors.

@PA, it was more like; this is a much better location so why not?.. Also according to the books, having your wg close to the turbo is better.

@Patrick, Hehehe.. I wish i did them.. Just started welding myself! But i'm slowly getting there! I welded the brackets on the exhaust..

And another update; building the intake manifold, made a bracket for the oil pickup tube, mounted the oil pan, now onto the rest of the intake and the intercooler.

Beautiful progress and great looking exhaust mods! Love the bellows addition, very nice! Is that a 3" V-band on your turbine housing or even bigger? It looks huge! Love the color choice as well! Are you planning on dumping that big WG straight to atmosphere? I bet that is going to wake up a few neighbors!

It is indeed a 3"! it's one round pipe from start to end with 1 open flow muffler at the end.

The WG is indeed going to atmosphere, but around my house there are no possibilities to get some boost so i'll have to wait for the rest of the city, because that's where i'll be waking up some people!

That really looks good! Nice work. Is the intake going to be a Supra style?

Thanks guys!

@Shawn, the supra sport might look like mine, not the other way around ofcourse!

I'll be ordering more heatwrap and shields along with a turboblanket soon as well.
