dont have any photos yet will try get some wen its finished. i was mostly trying to keep the inlet path as short as poss after the turbs. the inlet is going to be on slight angle tilting into ports so the only place fuel can pudle is in compressor housing. i no it made a huge difference on the turbo setup i had on a mini as to turbo size and wether the impella was spinning at idle which helped fuel from collecting in the comp housing and then going heaps rich for a bit after it was idling then driving. i have finished tacking the exhaust sections together and its looking good. very tight clearance tho, turbo very near the strut tower. inlets will just fit once ive ground the tubing away a bit and then may have to weld them together before i weld it to the manifold. hard to explain, try get some pics

well today i made up the exhaust flange to the turbo and welded it to the manifold. then i ripped off my old webber and exhaust setup to trial fit the setup on the engine in my car, shock horror there was no way it was goin to fit, then i realised that once the turbo was off the manifold the manifold would fit then whith a bit of a sqeeze the turbo goes on. is very close to strut tower, about 10 mm. i just hope my engine mounts dont flex coz it mite hit the tower. also realised that the bottom manifold bolts are goin to be very hard to tighten coz my exhaust bends are pointing on an angle towards each other. i may have to make a custom bent spanner to get em, no way a socket will fit. overall tho it looks stunning in the engine bay and there is plenty of room for a nice free flowing exhaust and dump. keep you all updated. probably doing the inlet part tomorrow! oh yea alittle voice in my head is telling me (injection) (injection)! see wat happens, hope i get big tax return
