I had my current manifold made for my current turbo but I'd love to make my own like this.

Yea I put an empty keg in my engine bay (on engine mounts and connected to transmission) and test fitted everything before tacking the manifold together. The wastegates have a lot of clearance to the frame rail and subframe and the dump tubes can easily exit through the opening in the subframe.

This is Mike I think we met at DGRR last year. At the BP on the last day before we left. I was driving Brian's (TitaniumTT) FC. Love your FD

Sweet!

Yeah I remember you! I didn't realize this was you though lol.

Thanks! I'm loving your FD as well. And those welds do look really good. I still have to learn to do that myself lol.
