I wonder if this is a perfect fit with the star kit.

the only criticism i have with it is where the wastegate tube is located, air would have trouble finding its way there, but besides that it looks good

Well that manifold looks nice but its not going to work. At least not that well.
1. Not a direct fit for the star kit. Flange is located too far to the right in the picture.
2. Wastegate flange location is fit for flow, wastegate relives pressure and is not concerned as much as flow rates. The location of the wastegate is on the left, the exhaust downpipe is on the right. Unless you plan to leave the wastegate open dumping on your compressor housing, you will need to create a long dump tube to route the wastegate back to the downpipe.

I still don't like this kind of a turbo setup. It favors the turbo, forces the usage of an excessively large wastegate, forces the use of an excessively large turbine housing, all to prevent the boost creep that could be avoided by having the manifold favor the wastegate in the first place.
Pfffffth.

I really think the problem is that people with our cars "Want one of them there flashy manimafoldz like on the turbo carz"
Form should ALWAYS be over fashion

that's gonna be mine, even though i've had people talkin shit to me in messages on ebay saying so and so is gonna win it lol
it's not going to be a direct fit for anybody, but since i'm changing to a gt40 with new downpipe and all, it's perfect to install right now. I was unable to get specs from the guy, but when it comes in, i'll let ya know (unless some bastard snipes me last minute)
