Still have the 50 trim mounted under it. Still waiting on a few materials to finish it off. Fired it up tonight to make sure everything is nice and sealed up tight, at 800 degrees the stainless is going to change colors....no doubt about it.
2.0 inch clearance to the hood at the highest point.
Couple pictures from the bottom of the new DP ect.

I like the divorced wastegate. Mind if I ask how much time you have in the design and build? How did you come up with that design? Equal or unequal length on the runners?

Thanks Guys.
Freelance.....the design phase has about 6-8 hours in it. Welding has another 50 hours. My welding is a little slow so someone with more skill could save 10 hours i bet.
I need a 90 degree bend for the IC pipe and I need ot make the 3" intake for the turbo as well. Turns out most of the low cost SS is gone and now we are stuck with 60.00 bends. Had a long discussion with RRE last night about it. The SS is so nice but so damn expensive.
